    Hope you don't get any wildfires. I spent a couple of days cutting up and hauling the winter and ice storm tree debris to where we burn it, only to have the state enact a burning ban last week. Oh well, it'll get burned eventually and the yard looks better and I'll be able to mow when necessary. 4 days of 80° weather last week and wind and now snow flurries the last couple of days so I guess maybe I won't need to worry about it for a while anyway.

    I had that same warning pop up on accuweather for southern WV. Very windy now and forecasting increasing highs the next few days with a high of 85 Thursday. Need to be watching for the snakes when Turkey hunting now.

    most of WI was under a Red flag warning last week with temps in the mid 80's and winds 30+ and yet some Brain out at Ft McCoy decided it was a good day to do a controlled burn on one of the north firing ranges ,, to say the least it got out of control and they to call a lot of help in to get it stopped

    The Ft. McCoy burn lasted several days and ruined about 3000 acres.

    Another controlled burn out here went for weeks and burned over 300,000 acres. Much of the town of Los Alamos burned in a previous fire that went over 100,000. This will be the trend of the future, with or with out controlled burns. About the only time I am glad I live in town.
