Due to increased wildfire risk, the N.C. Forest Service has issued a ban on all open burning and has canceled all burning permits statewide effective 6 p.m. Saturday, March 28 until further notice.

Under North Carolina law, the ban prohibits all open burning in the affected counties, regardless of whether a permit was previously issued. The issuance of any new permits has also been suspended until the ban is lifted. Anyone violating the burn ban faces a $100 fine plus $183 court costs. Any person responsible for setting a fire may be liable for any expenses related to extinguishing the fire.

The burn ban does not apply to fires started within 100 feet of an occupied dwelling. The local fire marshal has authority to issue a burn ban within those 100 feet.

Effective Saturday, March 28 at 8 a.m., the National Weather Service has issued a ** 🚩🚩RED FLAG WARNING🚩🚩** for some North Carolina counties. For counties that aren’t under a red flag, fire danger is still critical. Review weather alerts for North Carolina at weather.gov.

A red flag warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now or will shortly. A combination of strong winds, low relative humidity and warm temperatures will create dangerous fire behavior.

While open burning is permitted during a red flag, it is NOT advised. Please postpone ALL outdoor burning. If there was ever a time to show you can follow instructions the first time they are given, it’s now.

Careless debris burning is the leading cause of wildfires in North Carolina, and you are our best defense against wildfire. For wildfire readiness and prevention tips: preventwildfirenc.org

Fire danger is high, especially during the afternoon and evening hours. Fires can start almost immediately and easily from all causes. Fires can spread rapidly and intensify quickly. Spot fires can be a constant danger.

Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged.

Spread prevention, not wildfire.

For most people, when tragedy strikes life stops in its tracks. No one knows what to say or do. Eventually, time moves forward and so do they. But for us, that really isn’t an option.

We live our lives shift after shift serving our community on its worst days. Every day. Then there are shifts like yesterday when that tragedy becomes your own. Despite the training, the sweat and tears, and every mind working together… sometimes the call is bigger than all of it.

And when that moment passes, the radio still goes off because our community still needs our help. So you answer the next one and give it your all because they deserve it. That kind of life goes beyond strength and courage.

That is the kind of person Deputy Kaleb Mitchell was.

We want to acknowledge the efforts and professionalism of FCFD B Shift, Walkertown Fire Department, Salem Chapel Fire Department, Walnut Cove Fire Department, Mineral Springs Fire Department, our Forsyth County 911 Communications & EMS Divisions, the NCSHP, and the FCSO Communications Center for their actions during last nights events.

The Forsyth County Fire Division extends our deepest condolences to the family of Deputy Kaleb Mitchell and to our brothers and sisters at the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office.
