Texas Wildfire Data and Information.
Current Situation for Friday, Feb. 3, 2023 at 9:00 a.m.
Yesterday, Texas A&M Forest Service did not receive any requests for assistance on wildfires across the state.
The fire environment will support little to no wildfire activity this week. Cold temperatures and several days of rain or mixed winter precipitation will cause fuel moistures to remain above normal statewide. Little to no activity is expected statewide through the weekend, as temperatures slowly increase Friday through Sunday and chances for precipitation end.
There are currently 82 counties with burn bans.
*This information will be updated Monday - Friday while wildfire activity remains low.

Current Wildland Fire Preparedness Level:
On October 26, 2022, Texas A&M Forest Service lowered the Wildland Fire Preparedness Level to Level 1. Recent
rainfall has helped to increase dead fuel moisture across much of the
state. Forecast rainfall will continue to keep the potential for wildfire
activity low.
Preparedness
Levels 1-5 in state are planning assumptions and actions dictated by fuel and weather conditions, fire
activity and fire suppression resource availability. Level 5 is the
highest level of wildland fire activity and indicates heavy resource
commitment tofires locally.
