With the onslaught of this large winter storm many have added space heaters to their homes to help combat the lower temperatures. Below are some significant statistics that will hopefully inspire those of us using space heaters to practice heater safety as discussed in the attached National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) flyer.

Heating Fire Statistics- Based on 2020-2024 annual averages:

-Space heaters and heating stoves were the type of heating equipment responsible for the largest shares of losses in home heating equipment fires, accounting for nearly half (47%) of the fires, but over seven out of ten deaths (73%) and seven out of ten (70%) of the injuries in home fires caused by heating equipment.

- Fires originating in a kitchen or cooking area accounted for the largest share of home heating fires (19%).

- While the larger (non-confined) fires involving fireplaces or chimneys were involved in fewer than one in ten fires caused by heating equipment (8%), they caused just over one-fourth of the direct property damage (26%).

- Nearly half of the heating equipment fires (46%) occurred in the three-month period from December through February.

Plan for reduced speed and longer times for your travel today for your safe commuting.

After a rainy day in much of the state and temperatures dipping below freezing on Friday morning, moisture on the roads can freeze and create slick spots. Slow down and watch for black ice on your morning commute.

Crews are monitoring local weather conditions and will respond as appropriate.

Remember to visit goky.ky.gov for traffic cameras and road conditions.
