All fires that develop will probably spread quickly. Burning outdoors is not recommended.

Since April 1, more than 475 forest fires have been reported to the Minnesota DNR. Leanne Langeberg From the Interagency Fire Center, the recent sunny, warm weather says the fire risk in parts of the state:

She says that campfires should not have larger than three feet under these conditions and a diameter of three feet.
