Today, Engine 3, Booster 3, and Battalion 1 were dispatched to a grass fire along Highway 1093. The ongoing extreme heat has significantly dried out vegetation, increasing the risk of such fires. As temperatures soar and conditions remain dry, the likelihood of grass fires occurring more frequently is heightened.
This incident serves as a reminder for our community to remain vigilant. Dry grass and other fuel loads are particularly susceptible to ignition during this period of intense heat. We urge everyone to exercise caution and report any signs of fire immediately.
FSFD is committed to protecting our community, and we will continue to respond swiftly to incidents like this to minimize damage and ensure public safety.
