Connecticut state officials have lifted the burn ban in state parks after recent rains have reduced the risk of wildfires. The ban was put in place due to the dry conditions and high fire danger risk that had been present in the area.
The decision to lift the ban comes after the state received much-needed rain which has decreased the fire risk. Officials are urging residents to still exercise caution when using fires in parks and to be aware of any local restrictions that may be in place.
The ban being lifted is good news for residents looking to enjoy outdoor activities in state parks. With the cooler fall weather approaching, many people are eager to spend time outside and take advantage of the beautiful parks Connecticut has to offer.
Overall, the decrease in fire danger risk is a positive development for the state and should allow residents to safely enjoy the parks without the added worry of potential wildfires. Officials are reminding residents to continue to be mindful of fire safety measures while enjoying the parks.
