Shelby County Fire Danger remains High this week

Ag/Outdoor, News, Weather

April 11th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

Emergency Management officials in Shelby County say the field/grassland Fire Danger rating will remain “High,” this week. EMA Operations Officer Jason Wickizer says drying conditions, wind and abundant sunshine along with low humidity will make for dangerous fire conditions.

Anyone who plans to conduct controlled burns should contact their local fire chief, first. Be sure and call 755-2124 also, with the location of your burn, so dispatchers can gather logistical data.  Burns should be conducted with fire chief approval during the late evening or early morning hours only, when winds are usually reduced.High fire danger
