Fire Advisory in effect for Whitecourt
Posted on:
Whitecourt has issued a FIRE ADVISORY. This is due to the current and expected weather conditions and the dry grass hazard that we are seeing throughout the community.
Existing fire pit and fire burn permits will remain valid and new permit requests will still be approved on a case by case basis.
Under this advisory, backyard fire pit and campfires are still allowed, but extreme caution is advised as windy conditions are forecasted.
The fire advisory will remain in effect until conditions improve or further escalation is required.
