May 6th Brumley firefighters and one Miller County Ambulance District EMT attended landing zone operations training with MU-2 out of Osage Beach. This helps keep everyone safe on the scene when helicopter is utilized. Thank you MU-2 - Osage Beach, MO for your time and knowledge.

Training the communities we serve in landing zone operations and aircraft safety is a major part of keeping both emergency crews and patients safe during air medical responses.

When agencies practice:

-establishing and securing helicopter landing zones,
-coordinating radio communication,
-managing bystanders and traffic,
-identifying hazards like wires, debris, and uneven terrain,
-understanding rotor safety around medical helicopters,

they reduce the risk of accidents during already high-stress emergencies.

In rural communities, volunteer fire departments are often the first on scene, so their preparation can make a critical difference in how quickly and safely patients are transported by air ambulance.

Open burning today is highly discouraged due to low humidity, wind gusts and dry conditions.

An unseasonably warm and dry airmass with low afternoon humidity values in the 20% range in addition to dry to very dry grass conditions will result in an elevated fire risk today and again on Sunday.

03/20/2026

There is a high fire danger warning today and tomorrow. Winds are up and the humidity is low makes for quick spreading fires.

Tad Russell passed in the line of duty in 2021 and is greatly missed by all. Some of his family was able to go and attend the ceremony.
