The Frederick County Fire Marshal’s Office has issued a total ban on outdoor burning effective immediately until 6 a.m. Friday, April 25. All outdoor burning, including recreational fires, is prohibited.

The National Weather Service issued a special weather statement earlier this morning for Frederick County that stated conditions consisting of gusty winds, low relative humidity and low fuel moisture will enhance the threat for the spread of wildfires.
