Did you know that the Spokane Valley Police Department (SVPD) Bike Team increases patrols across the city from mid-June through August. Equipped with bicycles and a Polaris UTV, the team patrols parks and trails, assists at community events, supports the homeless response team, and provides an extra police presence in neighborhoods as needed. If you spot them out and about this summer, be sure to say “hi”!

A red flag warning is in effect.

🚩🔥 So What Is a Red Flag Warning? 🔥🚩

A Red Flag Warning is issued by the National Weather Service when critical fire weather conditions are expected or occurring.

These conditions can include:
🌬️ Strong winds
🌡️ Hot temperatures
💧 Very low humidity
🌱 Dry vegetation that can easily ignite and spread fire

When a Red Flag Warning is in effect, even a small spark can quickly turn into a fast-moving wildfire.

With dry conditions across our region, everyone plays a role in preventing wildfires. A few simple precautions can make a big difference in keeping our community safe.

Stay aware. Stay prepared. Help prevent the next wildfire. 🚒🌲🔥
