Amid heightened fire danger, the Wisconsin DNR urges the public to refrain from all outdoor burning this weekend, following 35 fires burning 300 acres on the state’s most active wildfire day this year. The DNR has suspended burn permits in several counties and mobilized resources, including an incident management team. Two significant wildfires occurred in Washburn and Douglas counties but are now contained. The public is advised to follow fire safety tips and check the DNR website for updates.
