There is no burning in Yellowstone County. You could be charged with burning without a burn permit and liable for suppression costs.

Gusty winds combined with record high temperatures and low relative humidity will result in elevated fire weather conditions Friday. Use extra caution to not cause a spark!

Do you think that this is the same story for Montana fire departments?

The Shepherd Fire Department, along with the Yellowstone County Sheriff's Department, will remain on site at the Feedlot Steakhouse fire. Crews have been working tirelessly to combat the fully involved blaze, but efforts have been complicated by roof and floor collapses, which have restricted access for firefighting operations. We urge the public to avoid the area, as emergency crews will continue to work through the night and likely into Tuesday.

We would all so like to thank our mutual aid partners for their assistance! Lockwood Rural Fire District #8 Worden Fire Department

You may notice a lot of commotion and extra emergency vehicles at the station tomorrow (Thursday, October 23rd)
Don’t worry, it’s just a drill! Lockwood Fire is hosting the site of an annual training we participate in, to make certain we are always ready for any incident that comes our way.
