Jefferson county has upgraded to a stage 2 fire ban. Thanks to everyone being extra fire-wise during these recent dangerous weather conditions. Everyone's actions help to keep our crews and our communities safe.

STAGE 2 FIRE BAN

Sheriff Reggie Marinelli has ordered a Stage 2 Fire Ban for unincorporated Jefferson County effective 8:00 a.m. on Thursday, July 2.

ALL FIREWORKS are illegal during the Stage 2 Fire Ban. This includes fireworks that may otherwise be considered legal.

Since Stage 1 Fire Restrictions went into effect Monday, fire conditions have continued to worsen. Regional and national preparedness levels have increased, Red Flag conditions have continued with no significant weather relief in the forecast, and measured Energy Release Component values in the southern third of the county have reached the 90th percentile. The northern two-thirds of the county are trending in the same direction.

These factors, along with the conditions that triggered Stage 1 Fire Restrictions, make this move necessary.

All counties and federal jurisdictions adjacent to Jefferson County to the north, west, and south will also be under Stage 2 Fire Ban conditions.

This is not the time to take chances. Follow the fire ban. Do not risk starting a wildfire.
