What they said. As temperatures heat up, grasses and finer fuels will continue to dry out! Practice caution with any activity that may cause a spark this weekend into early next week! #wawx #WaWILDFIRE

Temperatures will heat up this weekend but area waterways remain COLD from mountain snow melt! While the water might sound nice, think twice before jumping right in! Cold water shock can kill you in a matter of minutes - so always be prepared & aware near the water. #wawx
