My wife told me there is a ban on charcoal grilling statewide in New Jersey due to extremely dry conditions.
The weather has been phenomenally good for weeks- sunny and warm and no rain.
No rain in the forecast so I would guess the ban will be in effect for some time.
Our weekend grilling plans are now canceled.
The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has issued a mandatory Stage 3 fire restriction for all of New Jersey.
Officials are urging the public to adhere to the major restrictions as extremely dry conditions are expected to persist statewide.
The mandatory statewide Stage 3 fire restrictions, bans all outdoor open fires that use wood or charcoal and the use of kerosene or gas torches of any kind. Only fires with an elevated stove that uses propane, natural gas or electricity is allowed, according to the news release from Department of Environmental Protection.
