The Manitoba Wildfire Service advises that with some improvements in weather conditions in northern Manitoba, there will be a gradual lifting of some fire and travel restrictions. However, the south and central regions of the province still face high to extreme fire danger levels, therefore current restrictions will continue to apply, including in the Dauphin area.
Some rural municipalities have their own fire bans in place. Below is a list of RM’s surrounding Dauphin and the fire bans in place:
