This Week

Fire danger and burn bans continue

Elevated fire danger will continue for all of North Texas for the foreseeable future. Because of ongoing drought, hot temps, low humidity, and breezy conditions, any fires that get started could spread quickly.

Please continue to practice fire safety!
