Effective immediately, out of an abundance of caution, good stewardship, and respect for the harvest, we will pause open burning in our fire district. No new burn permits will be issued until further notice. If you have executed a controlled burn within the last 30 days, we ask that you remain vigilant and check on those burns. Additionally, if you are able, please fill in those burn pits that you are unsure about. Even with all of the moisture we had been receiving, we have received reports of dry conditions in the fields. Please pay special attention to this coming weekend. Forecasts currently show winds ramping up on Friday and peaking on Saturday. Wind gusts near 50 mph are currently anticipated. Any fires will move quickly. Be safe and do not hesitate to call 911 even if you feel that you may be able to control a fire yourself. Thank you everyone. Have a safe harvest!
