π₯ WILDFIRE DANGER β STATE OF EMERGENCY π₯
Arkansas is now under a State of Emergency due to severe wildfire activity across the state.
β οΈ CRAWFORD COUNTY REMAINS UNDER A BURN BAN. β οΈ
Extremely dry fuels remain capable of supporting fast-moving and serious wildfires, even in areas that have received isolated rainfall.
Residents are strongly urged to avoid all unnecessary outdoor burning and use extreme caution with anything that could create a spark near dry grass, leaves, or vegetation.
Please be especially careful with:
π₯ Outdoor burning
βοΈ Mowers and other equipment
π₯ Welding or cutting
βοΈ Trailer chains dragging on roadways
π¬ Ci******es and smoking materials
π Hot exhaust systems or vehicles parked in dry grass
β¨ Anything capable of producing sparks
A small spark is all it takes to start a dangerous wildfire under these conditions.
π« Crawford County remains under a burn ban at this time. Please do not burn.
π If you see illegal burning, an unattended fire, or any fire that is out of control, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY.
Please help us protect our communities, firefighters, homes, farms, and property. One preventable fire is one too many.
