ARE YOU READY FOR WILDFIRE SEASON?? INCREASED MOISTURE OVER THE WINTER COULD HELP EASE THE FIRE DANGER…BUT WENDY MASON WITH THE STATE FORESTRY DIVISION SAYS THINGS CAN DRY OUT QUICKLY IN THE SPRING, AND PROPERTY OWNERS NEED TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS. THAT INCLUDES MAKING DEFENSIBLE SPACE AROUND YOUR HOME, AND PACK A “GO BAG” SO YOU’RE READY IF YOU HAVE TO EVACUATE.
WE’VE ALREADY SEEN A DESTRUCTIVE WILDFIRE IN VALENCIA COUNTY EARLIER THIS MONTH THAT DESTROYED SEVERAL BUILDINGS, INCLUDING SOME HOMES.
