Burn Ban has been lifted.

If burning, please use caution!

🔥 BURN BAN LIFTED

Washington County Arkansas is lifting the current burn ban effective today.

While recent conditions have improved, we will continue to closely monitor weather and wildfire conditions over the next 10 days. If conditions become unfavorable or the risk of wildfire increases, the burn ban may need to be reinstated.

Residents are reminded to burn responsibly, follow all applicable regulations, and always consider current weather conditions before burning.

Please stay vigilant and help us keep Washington County safe.

As always we will continue to work with Washington County Department of Emergency Management and our rural fire departments to monitor risk.

🚨 BURN BAN 🚨

04/11/2026

This morning, Wheeler Fire Department conducted a live burn training at a house off Salem Road. Trainings like this are incredibly valuable for our volunteer firefighters, giving them the opportunity to gain real, hands-on experience in a controlled environment. It helps build confidence, sharpen skills, and better prepare our team to serve and protect our community when it matters most.

A special thank you to Wedington Fire Department & Central EMS for partnering with us, sharing their knowledge, and working alongside our crew. We truly appreciate the teamwork and support!
