Prepare & Prevent with National Wildfire Awareness Month! With warmer temperatures and dry conditions, now is the time to stay prepared and fire aware. Outdoor burning, campfires, grills, equipment sparks, and even discarded ci******es can quickly lead to dangerous wildfires.

Help protect your community by:
🔥 Checking local burn restrictions before burning
🌲 Keeping yards clear of dry brush and debris
🚫 Never leaving fires unattended
🚬 Properly disposing of smoking materials
🚒 Reporting wildfires immediately

One small spark can quickly become a major wildfire. Follow NC OSFM for more fire prevention tips!
