Increased Fire Danger Due To Wind 
While there is no current ban on open burning today it does not mean that it is safe or good idea. We are experiencing increased winds that are expected throughout the day. Please consider postponing burns. Another option is to cover and burn tomorrow during or following expected precipitation. This includes burn barrels which often allow embers to be blown out during wind events.
Instructions:
Consider postponing open burns due to possible wind conditions today. There is no current ban.
