WEATHER UPDATE | Monday, August 31

Lamar CISD schools and facilities will be OPEN and operate on their regular schedules tomorrow, Tuesday, September 1.

District leaders participated in a regional weather briefing this afternoon. While our area may experience rain and wind, current forecasts do not indicate conditions that would warrant canceling school.

We are aware of inaccurate information circulating online, including AI-generated information stating that Lamar CISD will be closed tomorrow. That information is false.

We will continue monitoring weather conditions throughout the evening and early morning. If anything changes that impacts school operations, Lamar CISD will communicate directly with families and staff.

For accurate information about Lamar CISD, always check Lamar CISD first through ParentSquare, our District website, and official social media accounts.

A burn ban was placed in effect today. If you have questions, please click the graphic and ask on the Fire Marshal’s page.

Fort Bend County has issued an outdoor burn ban for all unincorporated areas of the county, effective today, August 27, at 5 p.m.

Extreme heat, worsening drought conditions, and limited rainfall have significantly increased the risk of wildfires. As of today, Fort Bend County’s Keetch-Byram Drought Index (KBDI) is 634 on a scale of 0–800, indicating significantly dry conditions and an increased potential for fire activity.

🚫 While the burn ban is in effect, outdoor burning is prohibited in unincorporated Fort Bend County. This includes:
• Burning trash or debris
• Campfires
• Burn barrels
• Other open-flame burning that is not fully contained as required by the County’s order

🔥 Please do your part to prevent wildfires. Even a small spark can quickly become dangerous under these dry conditions. Use extra caution with anything that could ignite dry grass or vegetation, including discarded ci******es, hot equipment, welding, and vehicles parked over dry grass.

The Fort Bend County Fire Marshal’s Office will continue monitoring drought and weather conditions. The burn ban may be rescinded when conditions improve.
