Effective September 4, 2025, a Fire Advisory is in place for all of Lacombe County due to warm temperatures, windy conditions, and a lack of anticipated precipitation in the coming days.

At this time, Lacombe County continues to issue fire permits for minor burns; however, permits for large-scale burn activities will not be approved until conditions improve.

Minor burns are less than 500 sq. ft. or approximately 50 m2.
