MONTGOMERY, Ala. – As drought conditions across the state improve with recent beneficial rainfall, the Alabama Forestry Commission (AFC) is rescinding the Fire Danger Advisory for all Alabama counties.
The agency is constantly monitoring conditions and will continue to make recommendations regarding outdoor burning to ensure the safety of Alabama’s forestland and citizens.
The AFC continues to urge anyone conducting outdoor burning to follow safety recommendations, including not leaving a fire unattended until it is out (cold to the touch), having the necessary equipment and personnel to control the fire, and having a garden hose or other water supply on hand for smaller debris burns. The agency also recommends exercising extreme caution and staying informed about local weather updates due to the potential for windy conditions this time of year.
