**Celebrate the Fourth Safely**

As you prepare to gather with family and friends this Independence Day, Union County Fire Rescue reminds everyone to make safety your top priority when enjoying fireworks.

While fireworks are a holiday tradition, they also send thousands of people to the emergency room every year. According to the National Fire Protection Association:

-2 out of every 5 fireworks injury victims are children under the age of 15.
-Children ages 10–14 experience the highest injury rates.
-Even sparklers burn at temperatures of more than 1,200°F, hot enough to cause severe burns in seconds.

In 2025, fireworks caused approximately 13,000 injuries nationwide.

If you choose to use legal fireworks, remember:
-Soak all used or malfunctioning fireworks in a bucket of water before disposal.
-Keep children under close adult supervision at all times.
-Keep a water source nearby and never relight a dud firework.

The safest way to enjoy fireworks is to attend a professional display. Tonight the City of Uniontown and Caseyville will both be hosting public fireworks shows!

Let's work together to make this Fourth of July safe, memorable, and injury-free.

UCVFD had the pleasure of hosting UES kindergarteners at our station today. It’s always a great opportunity to teach the little ones in our community about fire safety—and answer all their questions about our apparatus. We were even lucky enough to have Sparky stop by and visit with the kids. We appreciate the visit!

🚨 Winter Weather – Please Be Prepared ❄️

As confidence continues to increase regarding a significant winter storm expected to begin this coming Saturday, we ask everyone to please heed all weather advisories and warnings.

Take time now to ensure you are prepared with essential supplies and necessities. We also encourage you to check on your neighbors, especially the elderly or those who may need extra assistance.

Also don’t forget about those outdoor pets—they may need to be brought indoors to stay safe during this severe weather.

If we receive the forecasted amount of snow, travel may be extremely dangerous, especially during the first few days. We strongly encourage everyone to limit travel as much as possible and stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary.

Your safety is our top priority. Stay alert, stay prepared, and stay safe. 🚒❄️

A significant winter storm is likely this weekend. There is still some uncertainty with the system, such as how much dry air is in place ahead of it and exactly how much snow will fall. Icing is also possible across southern portions of the Purchase and Pennyrile regions of west Kentucky. Significant impacts are likely, and those with travel plans should plan accordingly.
