Outdoor recreationists, including target shooters and hunters, should take precautions so they don’t accidentally ignite a wildfire. ➣ Being aware of official restrictions on shooting and other activities in fire-prone areas ➣ Not using tracer rounds, exploding targets or ammunition that is steel-jacketed or contains steel-core components ➣ Knowing that a vehicle’s hot exhaust systems can ignite dry vegetation ➣ Making sure all campfires and smoking materials are properly extinguished There were more than 56,500 wildfires in 2023 that burned more than 2.7 million acres of land throughout the country, according to the National Interagency Fire Center. These fires caused billions of dollars in damage plus hardship for both people and wildlife. Wildfires are tragic in many ways, including that in most cases they can be prevented when people pay attention to their surroundings and follow safe practices. Some 90 percent of wildland fires in the United States are caused by human actions. https://lnkd.in/gqgd9JW5 #GunOwnersCare #WildfirePrevention

Powerful storms are on the horizon all season long. And if the end of April was any indication of the storms we can expect, it’ll be more important than ever to have a safe place to shelter. Oklahoma and Texas residents know how important it is to have a tornado-proof building in their communities. That’s why there are so many concrete dome shelters in the most active parts of Tornado Alley. There are plenty of reasons to choose concrete domes for protection against storms: 🌪️ High resistance to impact 🌪️ Aerodynamic design 🌪️ FEMA-approved safe rooms See what we’re talking about on our blog: https://lnkd.in/gAJ6etwc #StormSafety #TornadoSeason #SafeAndSecure #DomeHomes #ConcreteDomes #BrooksConstruction #KingDomeBuilders

Wildfires will continue to happen. Like the recent Smokehouse Creek Fire in Texas, which is the largest in the state’s history with over a million acres burning. Wildfires like these are among the reasons why we researched ways to transform aerial firefighting. Even though firefighters risk their lives to battle the blazes, use suppression actions on the fire from the ground and fire retardant from the sky, it’s not enough. At Western States Fire, we monitor, track, and measure these things. Our mission is to transform aerial firefighting and protect lives, properties, structures, animals, and the environment. This is why we created the new SkHi-Ex product that delivers proprietary heavy-weight expanded fire-suppressing foam aerially 15X faster than current approaches. #smokehousecreekfire #aerialfirefighting #SKHI-EX #heavyweightexpanedfoam #firesuppressingfoam

According to the National Interagency Fire Center, in 2020, 58,950 wildfires burned a total of 10.1 million acres in the United States. This is the largest number of acres burned in a single year since 2015. Of these wildfires, 38,250 were caused by human activity, while 20,700 were caused by lightning. Human-caused wildfires burned a total of 5.2 million acres, while lightning-caused wildfires burned a total of 4.9 million acres. The states with the highest number of wildfires in 2020 were California, Texas, and Florida, while the states with the most acres burned were California, Oregon, and Colorado. IFFS technology is highly effective in battling wildfires due to its ability to create a high-pressure water mist that can reach a large area. This makes it an ideal solution for remote and hard-to-reach areas where traditional firefighting methods may not be effective. Additionally, the system uses a minimal amount of water, reducing the environmental impact of firefighting efforts. #firefighter #firefighting #fireforce #technology #iffs #iffsusa #wildfire

As we install these Frontline Wildfire Defense Systems I always try to educate homeowners on allowing debris to collect in gutters and other concealed areas of a roof. This home in Sedona is surrounded by Junipers and Pinion Pines, several of these trees are very close to the home. It is true that the Frontline Wildfire Defense System will provide saturation of water and fire retardant all over these areas. However, getting your landscaper or other handyman to clean out the gutters and just take a blower and blow off these areas that collect dry and dead leaves, pinecones and debris will help stop any flying embers from igniting the structure.
