A burn ban was issued for Scott County until further notice after the Scott County Commission and Scott County Office of Emergency Management issued the ban. Residents of Sikeston, including those in New Madrid County, will also be urged to follow the burn ban. All burning is banned, including brush piles and open fire pits. The burn ban was introduced because the county fire departments have responded to several grass fires that spread rapidly in the dry, windy conditions.
