The Howick Fire Department is reminding residents that the burn ban covering Huron County is still in place.
In a tweet on Thursday, Howick fire officials said dry conditions in the county have not improved.
The ban includes open-air burning, backyard campfires and restrictions on campground fires.
Some areas in Bruce County have lifted their fire bans including Kincardine, Saugeen Shores and the area of Huron-Kinloss covered by the Ripley-Huron Fire Department.
Residents are still urged to use caution when having a fire by clearing away all combustible materials, keeping propane tanks at least 3 metres from buildings, clearing out any accumulated dry debris from your property, and carefully discarding cigarettes.
If you are unsure if there is a fire ban in your area, check with your local municipality.
