Wildfire season is close, and staying prepared is crucial. Create defensible space around your home, prepare an emergency kit, and know your evacuation routes. Stay informed about wildfire activity, and check your emergency kit regularly. If a wildfire is near, evacuate immediately if advised, and keep doors and windows closed. After a wildfire, check for hot spots and avoid damaged power lines. Recovery is a community effort. Stay safe and help prevent tragedies by being prepared!

๐Ÿš’We are proud to support the Silver State Women in Fire this weekend in Carson City. It was inspiring to see so many determined, hardworking women stepping forward to challenge themselves and pursue a career in the fire service.

The future of firefighting is stronger when it reflects the communities we serve. These women demonstrated courage, resilience, teamwork, and a commitment to service, qualities that define the very best of our profession.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธOn Wednesday, June 3, Truckee Meadows Fire & Rescue (TMFR) will partner with Nevadaโ€™s Second Judicial District Court to commemorate Americaโ€™s 250th birthday during a community celebration at the Washoe County Courthouse.

The numbers from 2025 tell a clear story.

โžค 609 total wildfires in Nevada
โžค 345 of those were human-caused (57 percent)
โžค 54,154 acres burned from preventable starts
โžค Top causes: roadside equipment and vehicles, fi****ms and explosives, debris burning

Lightning will always be part of Nevada's fire story. Human-caused starts don't have to be.

Every secured trailer chain, checked tire, drowned campfire, and verified restriction is a fire that doesn't happen. A community that stays whole. A firefighter who stays home. A landscape that stays standing for next season.

Prevention works. And it starts with each of us. Make 2026 different.
