Despite cooler temperatures and recent moisture, wildfire remains a concern across Nebraska this Friday, Oct. 23. According to the National Weather Service, portions of western and north-central Nebraska are experiencing high to very high rangeland fire danger this afternoon, particularly near Sidney, Mullen, and Valentine.

Elevated fire weather concerns are possible Friday, specifically west of Highway 61, with 30-40 mph wind gusts across the state today through Saturday. Before riding, inspect your ATV or UTV, clear debris from hot engine and exhaust components and avoid parking on dry vegetation. Don't let your next ride ignite a wildfire.

Despite recent moisture and cooler temperatures, wildfire danger remains across Nebraska. As grasses go dormant and dry out, standing dead vegetation provides plenty of fuel for a wildfire to ignite and spread, especially during windy conditions. October is still Fire Prevention Month, so hunters are reminded to stay vigilant. Check fire danger before heading out, park vehicles away from dry grass and be mindful of potential ignition sources. Stay safe, prevent sparks and help protect Nebraska's hunting lands. Nebraska Emergency Management Agency Nebraska State Fire Marshal
