What affects fire damage around Chouteau

Wind driven grass fires, farm and outbuilding fires and cold season heating all play a part, and rural properties can be a long way from a fire station. Smoke from brush or wildland fires can reach parts of Oklahoma in dry seasons.

Wind can push grass and field fires toward homes and outbuildings.
Heating equipment, wood stoves and chimneys are in heavy use through cold winters.
Rural homes may rely on a volunteer or district fire department, so damage can be larger by the time crews arrive.
