Burn Ban Notice
September 18, 2025
Issued Sept. 18th
Effective immediately, there will be a town wide burn ban for the Town of St. Johnsbury. Persistent dry conditions coupled with dry falling leaves create a high risk for rapid fire spread. In addition, the weather forecasted for tomorrow, Sept. 19th, anticipates low relative humidity, and gusty winds. It is likely this burn ban will remain in effect for several days if not longer until a meaningful amount of rain falls.
