****Alert**** The National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for our area that has already started at noon today and will run throughout tomorrow April 22nd until 8:00PM. Winds could gust up to 35 MPH and the humidity is low which means fires can spread rapidly.

If you have a fire currently going with your burn permit - please discontinue adding to it so that it dies down. Properly smother or douse with water if possible so that the fire does not spread! And please wait to burn anything else until another day!

We appreciate your patience and we appreciate you helping to keep our county safe!!

Due to wind gusts up to 45 MPH, warmer temperatures (near 60 for Saturday), and relatively low humidity (around 15%) any fires that develop will spread rapidly. Therefore, Faribault County has issued a Burn Ban which will be in effect 10:00AM until 9:00PM Saturday, March 28th, 2026.
