Wildfire Conditions Remain Quiet Across Alabama Ahead of Dry Cold Front
Wildfire activity across Alabama is quiet, with no significant fires burning statewide.
Conditions and Outlook
No fire weather watches or Red Flag Warnings are in effect across Alabama. Warm, dry weather persists through Thursday before a dry cold front crosses the state on Friday, bringing breezy winds, sharply cooler temperatures, and minimal rain. Significant fire potential remains low statewide, though coastal areas may see a slight increase heading into the weekend.
Burn Bans and Land Management
An annual open burning ban on yard trimmings and land-clearing debris remains in effect through October 31 across 12 counties, including Baldwin County. Agricultural and silvicultural burns within the restricted counties require prior written approval and permits from state authorities.
What Residents Should Do
- Comply with seasonal open burning bans prohibiting yard debris burning in restricted counties.
- Refrain from burning debris in Jefferson and Shelby counties during the Code Orange Air Quality Alert.
