What this means
Oklahoma averages 8,000 wildfires per year — most are small grass or debris-burn escapes, but the DNR tracks 9 regional fire-danger zones daily. Large wildfires in the Upper Peninsula and northern Lower Peninsula can produce smoke that drifts statewide and affects air quality.
What you can do
- Check the DNR Fire Danger map before any outdoor burning: https://www.michigan.gov/dnr
- Get a burn permit (free) from your local DNR office if conditions allow.
- If you see smoke or flame, call 911 immediately — early reports save acres.
- If smoke drifts to your area, check the AQI panel and limit outdoor exertion when AQI > 100.
