(KNZA)--A burn ban has been issued for Doniphan County due to dry and windy conditions.
Doniphan County Emergency Management Coordinator Julie Meng says the burn ban will be in effect until 8:00 Friday evening.
Meanwhile, Brown County Sheriff John Merchant says the Brown County Sheriff's Office will not be issuing burn permits until further notice.
The National Weather Service has placed northeast Kansas in a Fire Weather Warning through 7:00 Thursday evening. Officials say gusty winds, low relative humidity values, and dry conditions will create ideal situations for fires to get out of control.
Brown County residents are urged to check with the Brown County Sheriffs office at 785-742-7125 or on line at brownso.org for updates on burning conditions.
