Lower King & Queen Fire-EMS

06/14/2026

To reiterate the info shared from Gloucester Vol. Fire and Rescue - While drought conditions continue across our area, we strongly urge everyone to avoid outdoor burning whenever possible.

Dry vegetation, low humidity, and even light winds can allow a small fire to spread quickly and become difficult to control. What may start as a routine debris burn can rapidly threaten homes, property, farmland, woodlands, etc.

Please use caution and consider postponing any non-essential burning until conditions improve. If you've burned recently, be mindful that it could reignite if the conditions are right. Your cooperation helps protect our community, our firefighters, and our shared resources.

We appreciate your help in reducing the risk of wildfires during this extended dry period.

🚨 Burn Smart, King & Queen County 🚨

With temperatures in the 90s and drought conditions continuing, outdoor burning can quickly become dangerous.

🔥 If you must burn:
• Avoid burning on windy days
• Keep water and tools nearby
• Never leave a fire unattended
• Completely extinguish all fires before leaving

One small spark can become a wildfire. Please use caution and help protect our community.

🚒 Prepared Homes Save Lives.

Strong work by all crews operating on this incident tonight. Through a coordinated effort, approximately 9,000 gallons of water were utilized to successfully contain the fire and prevent further spread.
We are grateful for our continued partnership with the Virginia Department of Forestry and appreciate their assistance and commitment to protecting our communities. Working together, we are able to provide a stronger and more effective response when our citizens need us most.
