Montgomery, Ala. (WDNews) — The Alabama Forestry Commission (AFC) has extended a Fire Danger Advisory to cover all counties across the state as drought conditions worsen, leaving no significant rain in the forecast.

In the past month, 246 wildfires have scorched nearly 3,000 acres, highlighting the escalating risk. While no official burn restriction has been issued, the AFC urges residents to avoid any outdoor burning until conditions improve.

A Fire Danger Advisory warns that current dry conditions make it easier for wildfires to ignite and spread. Residents are encouraged to stay vigilant to prevent accidental fires.
