Elevated fire weather conditions continue across large areas of Texas. Heat and storm potential may also impact fire threats. State wildfire response resources remain activated to support local fire response operations. Ensure you have a plan for yourself and your family.

Hot, dry and windy conditions can increase wildfire risk. Avoid parking on dry grass, secure trailer chains, and postpone activities that could create sparks. Heed guidance from local officials. State resources remain deployed to assist local communities with fire suppression.
