Show Notes
The Charlotte Fire Marshal's Office issued a citywide burn ban in coordination with state officials amid an elevated fire danger across the Carolinas.
A burn ban was already in effect for all 100 North Carolina counties, but the Charlotte ban includes a restriction on any fires within 100 feet of any occupied dwelling. The order bans all open burning in Charlotte city limits. The combination of low humidity, dry conditions and gusty winds has helped spark numerous wildfires in North Carolina and South Carolina.
