The Outdoor Burn Ban Still In Effect For Bowie Co? Bowie County Sheriff’s Report

Yes, we have had measurable rain the last few days, but also... yes, Bowie and Cass Counties are still under a burn ban. Someone in the report below got in trouble this week for burning outside in Bowie County. Don't do it. There are 254 counties in the great state of Texas, only 30 of those are not currently under a burn ban, and none of those are even close to us. See the chart below. Also, we have the latest rundown of crime in Bowie County from the past week, prepared by Chief Deputy Robby McCarver.

This report is for the week of July 25 - 31, 2022. If you missed the week before, it's right here.
