☀️ Hot weather is here, but the river remains fast-moving and dangerously cold. Water temperatures are still cold enough to trigger immediate cold shock and hypothermia. Please avoid entering cold, fast-moving water and keep children and pets away from riverbanks. Stay safe Nevada County.

☀️ El clima cálido ya está aquí, pero los ríos continúan siendo rápidos y peligrosamente fríos.
Las temperaturas del agua siguen siendo lo suficientemente frías como para causar un choque por frío inmediato e hipotermia.
Por favor, evite ingresar a aguas frías y de corriente rápida, y mantenga a los niños y las mascotas alejados de las orillas de los ríos.
Manténgase seguro, Nevada County.

Humans cause around 85% of unwanted, unplanned wildfires in the U.S. Escaped or reignited debris burns are a leading cause of these fires.

Use a burn barrel when possible and always keep your pile small and manageable. Never burn on dry, windy days. For more information to keep your backyard burn safe, visit SmokeyBear.com/debris-burning-safety.

As we continue our support of International Code Council’s Building Safety Month, we would like to highlight how simple, routine maintenance can make a big difference in keeping your home safe.

A well-maintained home protects everyone who lives in it, and regular inspections help prevent both injuries and costly damage.

Consider incorporating these easy safety checks into your household routine:
• Clean dryer vents and replace HVAC filters according to manufacturer recommendations
• Test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
• Check electrical panels and outlets for heat, buzzing, or discoloration
• Inspect plumbing for leaks or signs of moisture
• Clear gutters and remove overgrown vegetation or debris from around your home
