You can never be too grateful for crews like these. We may not work side by side every day, but whenever we do, they consistently prove to be precise, professional, and outstanding to work with.

The statewide burn ban remains in effect until further notice despite weekend rain in some areas. Persistent dry weather and increasing rainfall deficits from the last several months have left most of the state needing 10 inches of rain or more.

“While the rainfall we received over the weekend was a welcome sight, it offered little to no relief from widespread drought conditions while being nowhere near enough to reduce our wildfire risk,” said Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler. “Even the areas that received the heaviest amount of rain will quickly dry out from the sunshine and warmer temperatures. Until we get some additional rain and see more green-up in our forests, holding the burn ban in place statewide is the best option right now.”

While green-up and leaf-out are progressing at normal rate, low soil moisture, dry surface fuels and persistent low humidity are contributing to wildfire activity. For Western North Carolina, excessive forest fuels from Hurricane Helene are more available now than they were in 2025, low water levels in coastal areas have helped produce intense fire behavior where ground fire will likely be a long-term issue, and the Piedmont experienced 87 new wildfire starts over the weekend alone. Extended attack and mop-up efforts will be taxing and long-winded until drought conditions improve.

We were proud to once again support the Tour de Pickle during the North Carolina Pickle Festival earlier today 🥒🚴‍♂️

Indian Springs Volunteer Fire Department was happy to provide a rest stop for cyclists as they made their way through our community. It’s always great to see everyone out enjoying this unique, pickle-filled tradition.

Thank you to all the riders who stopped by—and to everyone who helped make the event a success!

May we never forget those who gave the ultimate sacrifice 22 years ago. While others ran away, only the bravest were running towards their untimely peril.
