Active Burn Bans: Bradley, Cleveland, Drew, Ashley, Union, Calhoun, Lincoln

Burn ban reinstated across Bradley County following brief period of relief

WARREN, Ark. — Bradley County officials reinstated the countywide burn ban Monday morning, November 9, 2026, after a brief period in which outdoor burning was permitted following recent rainfall.

The ban had been lifted for several days after rain brought some relief to the area. However, the limited precipitation was not enough to sufficiently improve conditions, and county officials have once again determined that outdoor burning poses too great a risk.

With conditions remaining dangerously dry, the reinstated ban prohibits outdoor burning throughout Bradley County until further notice.

Residents are urged to comply with the restriction and avoid burning leaves, brush, debris, or other materials outdoors.

The burn ban will remain in effect until conditions improve enough for county officials to determine that outdoor burning can safely resume.
