Spring is here and that means more time spent outdoors -- which is why it is important to remind everyone about the danger of wildfires.

One act of carelessness when lighting an outdoor fire could prove disastrous among dry conditions.

The greatest danger of wildfires in PA occurs during the spring months of March, April, and May.

Light rainfall in many areas, lack of green foliage in the spring, low humidity and sunny, windy days all combine to increase chances of forest and brush fires spreading.
