WARREN, Ark. – Bradley County is now under a burn ban as extremely dry weather continues across the region. The Arkansas Forestry Division issued the update Tuesday morning, citing dangerous wildfire conditions.
With no measurable rainfall expected for nearly a week, officials warn that outdoor burning of any kind is strictly prohibited. The ban includes the burning of brush, trash, and any other outdoor fire activity.
County officials emphasized the importance of following the restrictions, as even small flames could quickly spread in the current conditions. The wildfire danger in Bradley County is listed as moderate, but the lack of rainfall and ongoing heat have made the area vulnerable.
Residents are urged to take precautions, avoid any outdoor burning, and report suspicious smoke or fire immediately to local authorities. The burn ban will remain in effect until conditions improve and county officials announce its removal.
