Mr. Tim had a successful 12 hour surgery on Tuesday and he is doing well but has a long road of recovery ahead. Keep those prayers coming! I have personally seen this man "give the shirt off his back" to anyone in need. Now it's our turn to give back.

🚩 URGENT: HEIGHTENED WILDFIRE RISK THIS WEEKEND

Mississippi, please stay alert! A combination of low humidity and high winds is predicted to create critical wildfire conditions across the state this weekend. Our current environment is particularly vulnerable due to:

🔥 Ongoing Dry Conditions: Soil moisture is low, making vegetation easy to ignite.
🔥Increased Fuel Loads: Debris and "dry fuel" from recent natural disasters (including the February winter storms) have created extra fodder for rapid fire spread.
🔥High Wind Gusts: Winds can carry embers up to half a mile, starting new "spot fires" far from the original source.

🚫 CURRENT BURN BANS
The following counties are under strictly enforced burn bans. No outdoor burning of any kind is permitted:
Alcorn, Hinds, Benton, Rankin, Marshall, & Tishomingo

On March 18, there will be a prescribed fire at Witch Dance (Milepost 232–237) in Chickasaw County, MS.

Safety reminders for drivers:

• Slow to 30 mph and turn on headlights
• Watch for smoke, firefighters, and equipment
• Expect smoke to linger for several days
• Trails and pullouts may be closed during burn operations
• If visibility drops below 500 feet (150 meters), park rangers may temporarily stop traffic

Prescribed fires help reduce wildfire risk and support healthy forests and prairies by clearing overgrown vegetation.

Additional prescribed fires may occur throughout the week. Check back here for regular updates.
