(Tigard, OR)  --  Tualatin  Valley Fire & Rescue is keeping its burn ban in place.  Dry weather, warmer temperatures, and east winds will keep the fire danger high.  The Oregon DEQ normally opens agricultural fall burn season on October First, but the burn ban continues in TVF-and-R jurisdictions.  The burn ban does not include small outdoor cooking, warming, or recreational fires.  Barbecue grills and smokers are allowed as long as clean, dry firewood or chips are used.
