As of today, 19 counties in southern Arkansas are at high wildfire risk, and the rest of the state remains at a moderate risk. Burn bans are now in place in 41 counties. Under these conditions, fires ignite easily, spread quickly, and can become serious. Unattended brush piles and campfires are likely to escape, and hot, dry weather will continue to push fire risk higher in the coming days.
Report any wildfire immediately to the Department’s Forestry Dispatch at 1‑800‑468‑8834.
