Yes, it just rained. However, the little rain we received may have made the grass a little greener but did not materially affect the overall dry conditions throughout the area. One local meteorologist suggested that we will need dozens of showers like we just had to end this drought.

Therefore, the burn ban and water restrictions remain in place. Please be careful with fire especially outdoors. No burn pits, campfires, or fire circles please. Discard smoking materials properly...mulch and roadsides do not qualify as ashtrays.

Any questions about the ban can be directed to the Township Fire Marshal.
