Burn Restrictions by area

Low (Green)
Fires are unlikely to start easily, except from intense heat sources like lightning. Grassland fires may burn briefly after rain, but forest fires spread slowly with minimal risk of embers igniting new fires.
Moderate (Blue)
Fires can start from accidental causes but are generally limited in size. Grassland fires spread quickly in windy conditions, while forest fires burn at a moderate pace. Short-distance ember spotting may occur, but fires are typically manageable.
High (Yellow)
Fires ignite easily from most sources, including unattended campfires. Flames spread quickly, and embers can start spot fires. Fires may become intense, especially in dry, windy conditions or areas with dense vegetation.
Extreme (red)
Fires ignite instantly, spread uncontrollably, and burn with extreme intensity. Spot fires travel long distances, making direct firefighting efforts dangerous and often ineffective. Under these conditions, wildfires can become unmanageable until weather conditions improve.
Staying aware of fire danger levels helps protect lives, property, and natural areas. Always follow local fire restrictions and take precautions when fire danger is elevated.
