The Shelby County Emergency Management Agency says participating businesses, and fire station in the County, should keep their “FIRE DANGER” signs in the HIGH category for the next few days, as record temperatures and breezy conditions will create near RED FLAG (extreme fire danger) conditions, especially between 11-a.m. and 6-p.m. each day.

Any open burning that can be moved to the early morning or late evening hours, will reduce the potential for fires to rapidly spread. The next update will be Thursday morning.
