Officials in the Rio Grande Valley are alerting residents about an increased risk of wildfires due to current weather conditions, which include humidity and strong winds. These factors can create a hazardous environment for fires to ignite. Last week, multiple fires were reported in the area, with one incident linked to illegal burning practices. Residents of Hidalgo County are reminded that outdoor burning requires a permit from the Hidalgo County Fire Marshal's office to ensure safety and compliance with local regulations.
