🔥 FIRE WEATHER ALERT THIS WEEKEND 🔥
Dry conditions + gusty winds = high wildfire risk across our area. Even a small spark can quickly turn into a dangerous situation. 
Here are some tips from the Tennessee Division of forestry:
-Skip outdoor burning — permits may not be issued if conditions are unsafe
-Don’t park on dry grass
-Keep grills & fire pits a safe distance from buildings
-Fully extinguish ci******es
-If you see smoke or flames, call 911 immediately — don’t assume someone else already has.
