The National Weather Service has issued a Hazardous Weather Outlook for this evening and Wednesday (11/1) that includes Coal Creek Canyon. Wind gusts are expected to exceed 70 mph tonight and into tomorrow, which greatly increases the danger of significant combustion and rapid spread for any wildland fire. Because of this, effective immediately:
NO OPEN BURNING WILL BE PERMITTED IN THE CCC FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT THROUGH MIDNIGHT WEDNESDAY (11/1)
For more information see the National Weather Service bulletin.
Our fire weather zones are Fire Weather Zone 239 (below 6,400 ft) and Fire Weather Zone 215 (above 6,400 ft.).
