🔥 Extreme Drought. High Fire Danger. No Exceptions.

Georgia is facing severe drought conditions, and wildfire risk is at a critical level. Right now, it only takes one spark to start a fast-moving, dangerous wildfire.

This is not the time for “safe enough.” Even everyday activities can have serious consequences in these conditions.

⚠️ What to remember:
➡️ There is no safe outdoor burning right now
➡️ Anything that creates a spark can ignite a wildfire
➡️ Fires can spread quickly and unpredictably in dry conditions

Our firefighters are responding to a high number of wildfires across the state—and we need everyone’s help to prevent the next one.

Every spark matters. Every decision matters.

Fighting fire. Protecting forests. Serving Georgia.
