High Fire Danger

VERY HIGH FIRE DANGER
Due to very dry conditions, low humidity, winds and an ongoing fire in north end of county outdoor burning is highly discouraged. Residents encouraged to not place yourself and others in danger until conditions improve, consider not conducting any outdoor burning. There is not currently a burn ban but we are asking to let common sense prevail. 

Instructions:

Please consider not conducting outdoor burning due to conditions. Be extremely cautious disposing of fireplace ashes.
