PRIME GRASS FIRE CONDITIONS - With large amounts of fuel loading scattered around the West Texas area, extreme temperatures have increased the likelihood of grass fires starting. Low humidity and increased wind speeds are two key factors in grass fires and fire departments across the region are advising citizens to burn debris cautiously. Pictured is the Levelland Fire Department responding to an out of control pit fire that reached grass areas Saturday. (Staff photo by Jay Kelley)
PIT FIRE - The Levelland Fire Department responded to a pit fire that had reached surrounding grass near Avenue X, Saturday. The department sent two grass trucks and a tanker to extinguish the fire. LFD Fire Chief Jay McKay reminded community members that outdoor burning can be dangerous with the extreme heat and low humidity. Hockley County is currently not under a burn ban. Community members are encouraged to reach out to the LFD to give notice of burning activity beforehand. (Staff photo by Jay Kelley)
