The Shelby County Board of Commissioners has lifted the countywide burn ban in Shelby County.

The ban was ordered last week with, at the time, no significant rainfall dating back to August 18.

Shelby County experienced rainfall mid-week that provided relief for the ongoing dry conditions. Rain is listed possible in the forecast coming up on Wednesday and Thursday with cooler temperatures expected to follow this weekend with highs in the low-to-mid 60s.
The Shelby County Emergency Management Agency will continue to monitor the dry conditions and re-address the issue as need be.
