May 10, 2018 | 10:54 AM

Due to the increase in precipitation, the fire ban in Red Deer County has been lifted as of 9:30 Thursday morning.

Fire permits are still required for all open fires in Red Deer County.

Camp fires are allowed without permit, but must be contained within an acceptable fire pit.

Red Deer County Fire Services will continue to monitor the weather. Should the hot and dry conditions return, another fire ban may be put in place.
