The South Carolina Forestry Commission lifted the burn ban for the remaining counties at noon Wednesday. The previously statewide burning ban was lifted for the 41 other S.C. counties Monday, but remained in place for Greenville,

The Forestry Commission has decided to lift the burn ban in 41 counties because the "dangerous combination of low relative humidities and gusty winds that prompted the March 21 outdoor burning prohibition has improved and is expected to ease significantly across the state over the next week."

The South Carolina Forestry Commission announced the State Forester's Burning Ban will be lifted for Greenville, Horry, Oconee, Pickens and Spartanburg counties at noon on Wednesday.
