Daily Wildfire Report

Georgia Wildfire Activity Remains Quiet Statewide

Wildfire activity across Georgia is quiet today, with no active wildfires reported statewide.

Conditions and Outlook

No red flag warnings or fire weather watches are active across Georgia. Significant fire potential remains moderate in central and southern districts today before falling to low statewide through the weekend. Dry, sunny weather with seasonal temperatures and light winds will persist over the next few days.

Burn Bans and Land Management

Prescribed burns are underway across parts of northern and central Georgia, including fuel reduction projects near Allatoona Lake that have produced regional haze across the northern Atlanta metropolitan area. Permitted outdoor burning is authorized in select counties with requirements for continuous supervision and suppression equipment.

What Residents Should Do

  • Avoid calling 911 solely for smoke odor unless visible flames or immediate threats are observed.
  • Keep suppression tools nearby and attend all permitted outdoor burns continuously until fully extinguished.
  • Check local burning regulations and wind conditions before conducting any open burning.
