EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY: We have moved up the county-wide, seasonal burn ban (usually starting May 1) due to extremely dry weather conditions and an extended time without meaningful rainfall. Outdoor burning will not be allowed again until October 1, weather permitting.

Outdoor burning causes serious and significant risk to the public during drought and near-drought conditions. Any outdoor recreational fires (such as backyard fire pits, campfires, cooking fires and campground grills) are strongly discouraged. While technically legal during a burn ban, Forsyth County Fire Department officials are asking residents refrain from any and all recreational fires until weather conditions improve and our area has experienced significant and prolonged rainfall.

🚨 PSA: Dry Weather = Fire Risk 🚨
We know the burn ban is not in effect yet but with the recent dry conditions, even a small spark can quickly turn into a dangerous fire. If you smoke, please be extra careful:
🔥 Always fully extinguish cigarette butts
🔥 Never toss them on the ground or out of your car
🔥 Use proper ashtrays or containers
🔥 Double-check they’re completely out before disposing
It only takes one careless moment to start an outdoor fire. Let’s all do our part to keep our community safe.
