The showers expected today will only briefly dampen the forest fire danger.  The warning level is expected to remain high throughout the end of this month.  State forester Chris Martin says all brush fires in Connecticut are man-made.  In late April there was a brush fire on Sanfordtown Road in Redding.  An open burn was done by a resident without a permit.  There was also an illegal burn on Indian Head Road in Danbury that got out of control as well.  On Saturday, 11 acres in Kent burned in a brush fire.
