The Rural Municipality of Hanover has lifted its fire ban.

A ban had been in place since September first.

After what was a very dry summer, a lot of rain fell in the southeast over the weekend. Here in Steinbach 43 millimetres of rain dropped from Friday to Sunday.

The RM of La Broquerie, RM of Emerson/ Franklin and RM of De Salaberry have also lifted their fire bans.

There is still a burn ban in effect for the RM of Stuartburn.
