Special Weather Statement issued October 30 at 8:07AM EDT by NWS State College PA
A combination of dry and breezy conditions today will result in an elevated risk of wildfire spread across most of central Pennsylvania. The ongoing dry spell combined with minimum relative humidity values around 30 percent this afternoon and wind gusts from the northwest between 20 and 30 mph will all contribute to the elevated risk of wildfire spread. Residents are urged to exercise caution if handling any potential ignition sources, such as machinery, cigarettes, or matches. If dry grasses and tree litter begin to burn, the fire will have the potential to spread rapidly. For more information about wildfire danger and wildfire prevention and education, please visit the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources website at http://dcnr.pa.gov/Communities/Wildfire.
About
Fowlers Hollow State Park is a 104-acre retreat nestled in a narrow valley created by Fowler Hollow Run in Perry County. The park borders Tuscarora State Forest and serves as a gateway to an extensive network of multi-use trails popular with hikers, mountain bikers, and equestrians. The surrounding public lands offer thousands of acres to explore. The campground features 12 rustic electric sites with 30-amp service and 6 walk-in tent-only sites. All sites include a picnic table and fire ring. Facilities include flush toilets and potable water spigots, plus a sanitary dump station for RV users. No showers are available. One ADA-accessible site (Site 008) accommodates vehicles up to 50 feet. The largest electric sites can handle RVs up to 50 feet, though all are back-in only. The park operates from early April through mid-December. Hunting, fishing in the stocked Fowler Hollow Run, and winter recreation round out the activities. The remote location and small size make this a quiet destination suited for those seeking solitude near the trails.
