Tropical Storm Melissa:
This weekend she will strengthen to a hurricane and possibly a Major Hurricane by next week as she dances around Jamaica. We need to start watching her as the predictions are showing she will start heading north early next week. By no means am I saying we need to panic. We need to just pay attention.

Expect delays near the south end traffic light in Shallotte due to a wreck. Vehicles are blocking the roadway, and both northbound lanes are currently shut down.

PUBLIC NOTICE

BOLIVIA, N.C. – The Brunswick County Fire Marshal is issuing a burn ban for the unincorporated areas within Brunswick County that will go into effect at 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 23, 2025.

Current and future weather forecast models indicate conditions that are not favorable to open burning, particularly due to increasing wind and fire danger risks heading into this weekend.

All burning within 100 feet of any structure is banned within the unincorporated areas of Brunswick County. An unincorporated area is an area not within a city or town’s limits. If you are located in a city or town, contact your local municipal official related to the burn ban.

The burn ban does not apply to any open burning permits issued by the North Carolina Forest Service or permitted fireworks displays.

All open burning of natural vegetation outside 100 feet of an occupied dwelling requires a permit from the North Carolina Forest Service. In addition, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality may require additional permits for certain types and locations of burning.

The burn ban will remain in place until conditions improve. Brunswick County will send out a notice when it is lifted and/or to communicate any necessary safety updates related to the burn ban. For questions about the burn ban, contact the Brunswick County Fire Marshal’s Office at 910.253.2041.

Visit Brunswick County’s Burn Ban / Open Burning webpage for more information about local burn bans and open burning regulations.🛑🛑🛑
