Wildland Fire Danger: High
Safety Tip:
Summer is the time to enjoy vacations, camping, picnics and the Fourth of July; however, summertime also brings fires and burn injuries due to fireworks and outdoor cooking.
• Wear short sleeves or roll them up when cooking on the grill.
• Use long-handled barbecue tools.
• Keep a 3-foot safe zone around grills, fire pits and campfires.
• Attend public fireworks displays; this leaves the lighting to the professionals.
