[CAL FIRE @CAL_FIRE]

Due to heightened fire danger, CAL FIRE has increased staffing across the state for the duration of the current red flag warning to protect our communities. High winds and low humidity create critical fire weather conditions. Stay alert and prepared!

🔥 Fire Prevention Tips:
•Avoid outdoor activities that can cause sparks (e.g., mowing, grilling).
•Never park on dry grass.
•Secure trailer chains to avoid dragging.
•Dispose of cigarettes properly.
