Yes I agree that due caution is in order. Just because a burn is scheduled for a certain date doesn't mean that the date should be carved in stone. When the weather has been too dry and the winds are too high, I think the prudent thing to do would be to postpone the burn.

The Kirtland's Warbler in northern lower Michigan is so rare that it may forever remain dependant on mankind's periodic controlled burns on its behalf. Even now that the Warbler's numbers are increasing, extinction remains a very real possibility.
