A classic 70’s tune gives us the lyrics, “She ran calling ‘Wildfire’…..” Then a love song, but today, possibly the beginnings of an action / adventure / horror movie. With rainfall low, and temperatures and winds high, the wildfires we’re currently battling across the country are heavily taxing our first responder assets. More fires will surely follow if these conditions continue.
First responder assets aside, these fires have affected local civilians. Thousands have evacuated, and many find nothing but charred vacant lots when they return. What are some innovative ways civilians can protect themselves, their property, and actually help firefighters in the process?
At the household level, most of us have smoke detectors. That’s good, because in a house fire, as in a wildfire, where there’s smoke, there’s F.L.A.M.E.:
Family – Something as massive as a wildfire will affect your whole family. Prepare them now.
Landscaping – Simple and subtle steps can make your property much more fire resistant.
Awareness – In an emergency, time is crucial. Stay aware of the threat and get the warnings early.
Moisture – Some say you fight fire with fire. We say you fight fire with water.
Evacuation – Even after taking all the other steps, a wildfire is something best avoided.
