The high winds and high temperatures have raised the fire index for our area. Please use extreme caution with any open flames. Open fire are not recommended until after the winds have decreased.

Fire danger will be high in the area until we receive a substantial rain fall or snow cover.

Make sure you watch all open fires and properly extinguish them before leaving them unattended.

Keep in mind that the Thanksgiving holiday is when most residential fires occur. Contact Information: Donald Thomson Lake County SD 605-256-7611 lakeema@lakecountysd.com
