The burn ban in Caldwell County remains ON. If you ever have any doubt, just check the Caldwell County website at co.caldwell.tx.us to confirm the status. We have been made aware of websites out there that are attempting to be a "one-stop" resource for people wanting to know the status of Texas county burn bans. These sites are not run by counties and are infrequently updated, so they often include incorrect information.

Thank you for your attention! We appreciate your efforts to help reduce wildfire risk in our county.

🎃 Trick-or-Treat, Check the Heat! 🎃

Ever hear wildland firefighters talk about "the black"?

The black is the area of a wildfire that has already burned. Since most of the grasses, leaves, trees, and other surface fuels have already been consumed, this area is generally less likely to support active fire spread.

Firefighters often use the black as a safer place to work while building containment lines, monitoring hotspots and suppressing the fire's edge. However, hidden heat can still remain, which is why crews continue to check for smoldering material and hotspots long after the flames have passed.

🔥 Burned area = less available fuel
🔥 Often used as a strategic area for firefighting operations
🔥 Can still contain lingering heat and hotspots
