REMINDER! AS OF 3/27/25, WE ARE STILL UNDER A STATEWIDE BURN BANA burning ban is STILL IN EFFECT STATEWIDE.
Weather conditions, such as extremely low relative humidity, high, gusty winds and dry fuels (vegetative material) persist, even though some areas have seen rain. The rain was not enough to prevent new wildfire ignitions.
The burning ban is also intended to ease the strain on firefighting personnel and law enforcement officials – from both the Forestry Commission and from local agencies – many of whom have been dispatched to the Table Rock Complex, which includes the Table Rock Fire and Persimmon Ridge Fire.
SCFC officials are monitoring conditions, but at this time, it is not safe to burn outdoors.
