St. Landry burn ban takes effect as dry conditions raise fire danger

Residents in the unincorporated areas of St. Landry Parish are now under a burn ban as local officials warn that dry conditions have increased the risk of fires spreading quickly. St. Landry Parish Government announced the burn ban will remain in effect until further notice and applies to open-air burning activities that could create uncontrolled fires or produce floating embers . Officials said the restrictions are intended to help protect lives, property and surrounding communities during a period of elevated fire danger. Under the burn ban, residents are prohibited from burning yard debris and vegetation, including leaves, grass clippings, tree branches, brush piles and other yard waste. Bonfires, campfires, recreational fire pits, fire rings, chimineas and other outdoor wood-burning fires are also prohibited. The ban further prohibits the use of burn barrels to dispose of household garbage, cardboard, paper or other materials.

According to parish officials, enclosed gas, propane and natural gas grills equipped with on/off valves may continue to be used.

A Nice Week, Getting Warmer & Staying Dry…

It will be a dry week, and it will gradually get warmer. Highs will be in the low to mid 80s, and lows will be in the low to mid 50s. The weekend will be dry and warm with highs in the mid to upper 80s. The humidity will be a little higher over the weekend. I don’t see any rain chances for the next week.
