As we head into another weekend, you’re being reminded that a fire ban remains in place for most of the area.
Although some parts of Perth County saw some rain over the past week, all open air fires are still prohibited in the Townships of Perth East and Perth South and the Municipality of West Perth.
Open air fires include bonfires, camp fires, burn barrels and outdoor fire places.
Officials say there have been a number of incidents of field fires and of people having unauthorized open air fires across Perth and Huron Counties recently.
You’re asked to call 911 right away if you see any of these.
The City of Stratford is still under a fire ban as well.
