🔥IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW🔥

When drought conditions and fire danger exists, a burn ban can be put in place by a county judge or county commissioners court prohibiting or restricting outdoor burning for public safety. Always check your county website for more information.

Even if your county is NOT currently under a burn ban-hot, dry, and windy conditions can still make outdoor burning extremely hazardous. It only takes one spark to ignite dry vegetation.

👉 Always check your countywide burn ban status
👉 Always check the day’s weather conditions
👉 If conditions are questionable—don’t burn
🚫 Avoid burning on dry, hot, or windy days—burn ban or not
🌬️ Winds can carry embers far from your burn pile
🌾 Dry vegetation can ignite and spread rapidly
