06/09/2026 PSA:
Utah has a new website designed to give you fire related information:

https://utahlivingwithfire.org/

It focuses on Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) guidelines and preparations for your family, home, and property.
The site is currently in its initial stages, and more products and information will be added in the future. Check back often for new and updated data.

Like we said, just consider all of June to be in Red Flag watches or warnings.

Widespread critical fire weather conditions are expected today, and will continue through much of this upcoming week. This means fires will catch easily and spread rapidly! High-end fire weather conditions look possible on Tuesday due to stronger wind gusts, potentially around 30 to 45 mph, if not higher in some areas.

Be safe out there.

All of Utah, all of it.

Seriously, we can not say it enough; "Move to the right for sirens and lights".
We all deserve to go home at the end of every call.

This is why moving over matters.

This morning on southbound I-15 in Bountiful, one of our Incident Management Team members was assisting a stranded motorist when his vehicle was struck on the shoulder of the freeway.

Thankfully, he is okay.

But this was the second UDOT vehicle hit in less than 24 hours. The night before, a vehicle supporting Express Lanes work in Utah County was also struck.

When you see emergency vehicles, tow trucks, incident responders, maintenance crews, or law enforcement stopped along the road:

PLEASE Slow down. Move over. Pay attention.

These are real people doing real work just a few feet from traffic.

As school lets out and kids spend more time outside, it’s the perfect time for a reminder about staying safe on the road and trails. May is Trauma Awareness Month — a time to focus on preventing injuries before they happen.

With Utah’s updated e-bike laws now in effect, families should take time to review the rules, wear helmets, and talk about safe riding habits before summer adventures begin. Whether riding a bike, scooter, ATV, or e-bike, safety matters for every age.
