Effective immediately due to extremely dry conditions, the Butler Fire Department will issue no more burning permits until significant moisture is received.
For individuals living outside the city in areas where burning is allowed, burning is discouraged.
The National Weather Service in Pleasant Hill has issued a Fire Weather Watch for Friday, January 24th from 10:00 A.M. until 6:00 P.M.
Winds at that time from the southwest from 20 to 30 MPH gusting to 40 MPH, along with relative humidity values in the 20% to 30% range will possibly increase the fire danger to the critical level.
