We strongly advise the public to appreciate fireworks displays conducted by professionals rather than hosting private shows, given the heightened risk of wildfires due to dry conditions and hot temperatures, which could jeopardize properties and neighboring areas if fireworks are not used with caution.

The Roseland Fire Department expresses its heartfelt condolences to the family of Deputy Bost in this time of great loss. The Columbus County Sheriff’s Office and family will be in our thoughts and prayers for an extended time.

Please use caution when conducting any open burning. If possible wait until conditions improve!

🔥 HEADS UP: High Fire Danger has returned to most of the state, a result of abnormally dry fuel conditions further exacerbated by high temperatures low relative humidity, and gusty SW winds of 10-25MPH, resulting in high fire danger across most of North Carolina! This will continue this afternoon and into Sunday.

Fire fuels could easily ignite and spread rapidly in these conditions. Residents and visitors to the area are urged to properly dispose of cigarette butts, matches, and any other flammable items in appropriate containers. Exercise caution if operating any equipment that could create sparks, and keep vehicles off dry leaves and grass.

PUBLIC NOTICE:
We understand everyone wants to maintain a clean yard; however, the statewide burn ban remains in effect and conditions are currently critical for extreme wildfire activity.

To avoid fines or citations, do not conduct any outdoor burning until weather conditions improve and the burn ban is officially lifted.

Your cooperation is essential. Help us protect our community, homes, and first responders by refraining from burning at this time.

The state wide burning ban is still active! No open burning is permitted!

🚒Very High Fire Danger returns to the state for the remainder of the week into the weekend! Our moisture from Sunday is starting to dry up, and looking at the data, the forecast supports high fire to very high fire danger ‼️ over the next week.

Why is the fire danger high!!
Critically Dry Fuels: Following one of the driest Marches on record, soil moisture and stream levels are at very low. This means grass, brush, and trees are extremely dry and ready to ignite. Weather conditions are also exacerbating the situation; low humidity levels and gusty winds over the next few days will keep fire levels high.

-An open burn ban remains in effect for all 100 counties until further notice. Please DO NOT BURN.
