Special Weather Statement issued April 12 at 2:03PM EDT by NWS Blacksburg VA
The combination of 10 hour fuel moistures around 7 to 10 percent, relative humidities around 25 to 30 percent, and wind gusts around 20 to 25 mph will lead to an increased risk for the rapid spread of wildfires on Monday. Residents and visitors are urged to properly dispose of cigarette butts, matches, and any other flammable items in appropriate containers. Additionally, exercise caution if operating any equipment that could create sparks and keep vehicles off of dry grass. Most dry grasses, dead leaves, and other tree litter could easily ignite and spread fire quickly. Lastly, remember to obey local burn bans. For more information about wildfire danger, burn restrictions, and wildfire prevention and education, please visit your state forestry or environmental protection website.

About
Claytor Lake State Park's overnight dock rentals provide a unique waterside accommodation for boaters on the expansive 4,500-acre Claytor Lake. Two overnight boat slips are available at A Dock, accommodating vessels up to 24 feet in length. Each rental includes a park and launch pass for one vehicle, with check-in at 4 p.m. and check-out at 3 p.m. The marina offers a full range of services including gasoline sales, fishing supplies and licenses, and a gift shop. The 21-mile-long lake is renowned for sport fishing, with popular catches including bass, catfish, muskie, walleye, and striped bass. The park recently installed various fish attractors to improve fishing opportunities. Boaters have access to the park's amenities including hiking trails, swimming beach during summer months, picnic areas, and the historic Howe House visitor center. The location is easily accessible from Interstate 81 in the New River Valley of southwestern Virginia.
