The Department of Natural Resources is listing the fire danger for all Wisconsin counties except for one as “high,” or “very high.”
As of last weekend, Vilas County was the only one not on the list – it has a “moderate” fire danger.
The D-N-R is reporting warm temperatures, low humidity and high winds are combining to create conditions that allow fires to spread quickly.
Below normal winter snowfall and little or no snowpack to melt are additional factors.
People are being advised to avoid burning and to use caution if grilling or using equipment that can spark.
