Living in California, and perhaps more specifically the Sierra Nevada Foothills, means that we have long fire seasons and in addition to “go-bags” for possible evacuations, there are steps you can take to mitigate potential fire risk to your property. Visit www.MyNevadaCounty.com to get a copy of this season’s Fire Guide. It’s full of safety tips and things you can do to be prepared ahead of time.
This week, Andrew reviews some of those important reminders on what you can do to get your property ready now, in the event that your neighborhood or home face the danger of a wildfire. You can listen to the show here -> You Got This! or on KNCO at 9am on Fridays.
In addition to grabbing your useful fire season guide, consider signing up for Emergency Services communication at www.MyNevadaCounty.com/OES to receive alerts for your area, in the even of a natural disaster. They send text updates and notifications to your cell phone so that no matter where you are, you can learn about any fires or emergencies in the area.
