The Okmulgee Fire Department worked quickly Saturday morning to extinguish a grass fire that spread quickly in the 1400 block of E. Randolph Street. The fire from a grill caught grass on fire and spread to the dry vegetation near the property endangering several structures, but was put down quickly by the OFD. With the extreme dry and warm conditions, citizens are encouraged to use caution with outdoor grills and flammable items, especially as the holiday season continues. Temperatures are projected to reach into the 80s this weekend, as the unseasonably warm weather continues. However, cold weather will soon return to the area.
