(KNZA)-- With Tuesday's rain, burn bans have been lifted in area counties.

Burn bans are no longer in place in Atchison, Brown and Doniphan Counties.

Brown County Sheriff John Merchant says the sheriff’s office is again issuing burn permits.

Doniphan County Emergency Management Coordinator Julie Meng is asking county residents to call the Doniphan County Sheriff’s office at 785-985-3711 before burning.

Burn bans were put in place in the counties this past weekend due to the dry and windy conditions at the time.
