We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of White County Judge Lisa Brown.

Judge Brown dedicated decades of her life to serving the people of White County with knowledge, integrity, and a genuine heart for her community. From her years working behind the scenes to her leadership as County Judge, she left a lasting mark on the county she called home.

Our thoughts and prayers are with her husband George and the entire family during this difficult time. White County has lost a true public servant.

A combination of sustained winds between 10 to 15 mph, wind gusts of 20 to 30 mph (35+ mph in the higher terrain) coupled with continued dry conditions and dry fuels will lead to an elevated wildfire danger on Tuesday, especially Tuesday afternoon.

03/30/2026

High fire danger conditions exist in all 75 counties.

High: Fires ignite easily and spread quickly. Unattended brush fires and campfires are likely to escape. Fires may become serious if not attacked early.

Report flames immediately by calling 911.

Burn ban continues with elevated fire risk.

There is an Elevated Fire Risk Saturday following this weak system today. Lack of significant rainfall and low humidity Saturday will allow fires to catch easier. Winds will trend lighter during the driest part of the day, limiting a larger risk. Outdoor burning should be avoided.
