CAMERON COUNTY – Heavy smoke has intermittently been affecting the residents of Cameron County since last night. Reports confirm this is due to a landfill fire in Matamoros currently affecting the state of Tamaulipas and our U.S. Border. The Office of County Judge Eddie Treviño, Jr. and Cameron County Office of Emergency Management are continuing to monitor the situation closely. Residents with concerns about air quality safety can protect themselves by:

• Limiting exposure by remaining indoors whenever possible

• Wearing an approved mask
