Do you know when to call 911 or when to use the non-emergency line? Since April is Emergency Communications Month, it's a good time for a quick review. Thank you to all the dedicated emergency response dispatchers who keep our communities safe. We appreciate you!

At 1:59:59 a.m. on Nov. 3, we fall back to 1 a.m. Check your smoke alarms when you reset your clocks, and replace batteries and old detectors if needed. We tend to see more home fires during the winter months, so this small action can give you an alert and more time to escape.

[florencefire @florence_fire]

Florence area: Fall burning is now OPEN in Ravalli County, until November 30, 2024. Burn permits are still needed and must be activated each time you burn. Be Fire Safe!

[Montana DES @MontanaDES]

It's that time of year where we're going to start seeing school buses on the road again. Be sure to stop for school buses while they load and unload school children. Slow down in school zones and watch for children using cross walks. #MtBacktoSchool

No more emergency responders should die at the hands of distracted drivers. If you agree, pass this video on to remind people to slow down and move over when passing roadway incidents!
