Cass County ESD #2

10/15/2026

We are now under a red flag warning tomorrow through Saturday. If you see any smoke call 911!

A strong cold front will usher in very dry air on Friday as relative humidity plummets between 25 to 35 percent with winds gusting out of the north up to 30+ mph at times. As a result, a Red Flag Warning is in effect with the threat of rapid start and spread of wildfires.

A dry line will be moving in with a cold front on Friday dropping the relative humidity and bringing high winds through most of the weekend. We are still under a burn ban!

A strong cold front will bring much drier conditions to the area late this week and through the weekend with relative humidity values dropping between 20 and 30 percent and winds gusting out of the north up to 30 mph at times. This will increase the threat for fires.

Back in fire danger again! Please be cognizant of the weather this weekend

Dry conditions and northeast wind gusts up to 25 mph to make for favorable wildfire conditions on Friday.

We understand again that your house may have gotten rain but please refrain from burning as we are still under a burn ban for the county. Our grasses may see a little “green up” as we call it but with the temperatures at night getting cooler it is unlikely. The pine timber is pretty receptive to fire after recent rainfall.
Today is the perfect example of a good day for a wildfire with relative humidity in the 20-30% range and wind around 10mph sustained.
Please as homeowners don’t let your guard down just yet!

We know that some parts of the county received rain yesterday but not near enough to change the drought levels. The burn ban has been extended for the next 30 days. No outdoor burning allowed

We are now under a burn ban. No outdoor burning will be allowed

🔥 **BURN BAN ISSUED FOR CASS COUNTY** 🔥

Effective immediately, Cass County is under a countywide burn ban for seven days. Conditions will be reevaluated before the order expires to determine whether an extension is necessary.

Please suspend all outdoor burning and avoid activities that could produce sparks near dry vegetation. The cooperation of every resident helps protect lives, property, and our volunteer firefighters.

Please share to help us spread the word.

Folks let me introduce you to the new CCESD2 and Lifenet post 70! This has been in construction for around a year with planning phase included. It has been built for us to expand our fire department into holding more full time fireman as it comes with all the amenities that a normal house has with 4 bedrooms two bathrooms and a kitchen and laundry room in both living quarters. The Bay Area has a mop closet and another bathroom. The most exciting part to us is not only is it housing our firefighters it’s also housing Lifenet Ems post 70 with a completely separate living quarters in the exact same layout!
This is all thanks to great teamwork from everyone involved from the community and board to the men and women who serve in this new home!
This station is also donated to our late board president Mr. Bo Buzbee who served us for 24 years as a board member!
Also we will be hosting an open house in the future to let the community come see the new fire house!

Just a heads up to everyone. If it holds together there is another strong chance for heavy rainfall for our area around 8pm with the potential of thunderstorms as well.
