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.

🎯Check fire danger: https://climate.ncsu.edu/fire/.
🎯Check weather alerts for your area: weather.gov.
🎯Contact your local NCFS county ranger. https://bit.ly/3lpoWR0

Spread prevention, not wildfire.
