Drought like conditions have caused concern about the potential for fires and water shortages. Woodbury Mayor Harold Patrick said that it is unsafe to have any open burning or to discharge fireworks at this time. The Woodbury Fire Department is on a status of high alert in the event of a fire and the town’s water supply is beginning to reach the critical stage. The Tennessee Division Of Forestry recently released their advisory for everyone to consider waiting until sufficient rainfall before shooting off fireworks Woods, Fields and Yards are extremely dry and will be easily ignited by bottle rockets, roman candles or any type of fireworks and these fires because of the low fuel moisture could spread rapidly and be difficult to control . High temperatures are expected to reach 101 over the weekend with still no rain in the forecast for next week. The Fireworks Show scheduled for July 3rd at Dillon Park is still expected to carry on as planned
