The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is asking the public to stay vigilant and avoid burning because of very high fire danger across most of Wisconsin. Areas with VERY HIGH danger include Ashland, Bayfield, and Iron counties. All DNR issued annual and special burning permits for debris piles, burn barrels and prescribed burns are suspended in these counties where the DNR has burning permit authority. Avoid all outdoor burning until conditions improve. Check daily fire danger, wildfire reports and burning restrictions on the DNR website at bit.ly/WiFireDanger
