☀️🔥⛈️ Spring & Summer Safety Reminder – West Central Indiana ⛈️🔥☀️

As we head into warmer months, our area often sees an increase in both fire risks and severe weather, including strong winds, heavy rain, and even tornadoes. A little preparation goes a long way in keeping you and your family safe.

🔥 Fire Safety Tips:
• Always check burn bans and avoid burning on windy or dry days
• Keep fire pits at least 10–15 feet from structures
• Never leave fires unattended
• Properly dispose of smoking materials—never toss them in dry grass
• Clear dry leaves and debris from around your home

⛈️ Storm Safety Tips:
• Have multiple ways to receive weather alerts
• Know your safe place (basement or interior room)
• Secure outdoor furniture, grills, and loose items
• Prepare an emergency kit (water, flashlight, first aid, etc.)
• Avoid downed power lines and report them immediately
• Never drive through floodwaters—Turn Around, Don’t Drown

👨‍🚒 Stay alert. Stay prepared. Stay safe.
Let’s work together to protect our community this season.
