Please continue to exercise caution! ⚠️

🌧️ Rain check? Not quite.

While parts of Mississippi recently saw light rainfall, 57 counties across the state remain under active burn bans.

A quick shower dampens leaves on top, but it isn't enough to soak deep into underlying dry timber, soil, and forest litter. Once rain clears and wind picks up, wildfire risk rises quickly right back up again.

🚫 What is strictly prohibited under a burn ban?

🔻Debris & yard waste burning
🔻Campfires & open fire pits
🔻Brush & field burning

🔥 Remember: Spotty rainfall does NOT lift or cancel a burn ban. A county burn ban remains in effect until its official expiration date, or it is lifted by the County Board of Supervisors.

Check your county on the map below or visit mfc.ms.gov/burn-bans.

Please use extreme caution ⚠️
We are praying for a weekend full of rain to ease this drought! 🌧️

WLBT 3 On Your Side recently interviewed our Director of Outreach & Communications, Shannon Coker, about the current status of burn bans and wildfires statewide.

Although this interview was recorded last week, the threat remains critical: dry conditions persist, and 64 counties are now under a burn ban.

Please stay safe and follow local burn ban guidelines!
