    Planning to grill, camp, and kick back by the fire this holiday weekend? Keep the fun going safely: - Check your local fire rules. - Keep fire away from dry grass and tents. - NEVER leave a fire unattended. - Keep water nearby and make sure fires are fully out.
    What to do to Prevent Wildfires: Campfire Safety. Clear 10 feet around the fire. Always have a source of water, a bucket, and shovel nearby. Do not build a fire in hazardous, dry conditions. Keep the fire small & under control. Drown all embers with water until hissing sounds stop. No water? Mix dirt or sand into the embers with a shovel to bury the fire. Add water, dirt or sand & stir with a shovel until it's cool.

    Preparedness is a shared responsibility, and we all have a role to play. 🤝 Create a household emergency plan to keep all members of your family safe, including pets, and make sure everyone knows where to go and what to do. Tips: ready.gov/plan

    If your area is experiencing flooding due to Tropical Storm #Edouard, avoid travel, especially at night when floodwaters are difficult to see. Stay safe on higher ground and never drive or walk through flooded roads. Turn Around, Don’t Drown.

Do not walk, swim or drive through flood waters. Turn Around, Don't Drown! Stay off bridges over fast-moving water. Learn more: Ready.gov/floods" and the Ready logo

    Tropical Storm #Edouard reminder: Take a moment to check on loved ones in the storm’s path. Text them and make sure they have essentials and a safe place to stay. A quick check-in can make a big difference.
