🎆 STAY FIRE-SAFE THIS NEW YEAR’S EVE 🎆

As we prepare to ring in 2026, the Alaska Division of Forestry & Fire Protection wants to wish all Alaskans a happy and safe New Year!

Alaska is a vast state, and while some of us are buried in snow, others are experiencing very different conditions. We want to remind everyone that fire risk doesn't disappear just because it’s winter. ❄️

🌬️ Know Your Local Conditions

In many areas of the Mat-Su Valley and South Central, conditions remain windy and dry. High winds can carry embers from fireworks or outdoor fires into dry vegetation faster than you can react. Even with cold temperatures, the lack of snow cover in some areas means the grass and brush are still receptive fuels for a fire.

📜 Follow the Rules

Before you celebrate, please check your local, borough, and city ordinances regarding fireworks.

-Check First: Many areas have strict prohibitions or specific time windows for fireworks.
-Liability: Regardless of the time of year, if a fire is started by fireworks or negligent human activity, you can be held legally and financially liable for the costs of fire suppression and any resulting damage.

🤝 Be a Good Neighbor

We are collaborating closely with our partners at the Alaska State Fire Marshal’s Office and with local Boroughs and municipalities to ensure a safe holiday for everyone.

Please make smart choices:
-Avoid lighting fireworks in high winds.
-Have a water source or extinguisher nearby.
-Be mindful of neighbors, livestock, and pets.

Let’s start the new year on a high note by keeping our communities safe and our fire crews at home.

Happy New Year to All! 🎉

Thousands of people, especially children and teens, are injured each year by fireworks—resulting in burns, fires, and even death. Despite the risks, many don’t understand the dangers.

This year, choose safer alternatives like glow sticks and silly string to celebrate this without the risks!

Alright Palmer—here we go again, round two.

It is already fairly windy, though not to the level we experienced last week. This is a good opportunity to think back on that recent wind event and take a few moments to prepare anything you wished you had secured or ready at that time.

Please make sure loose items are properly secured, including grills, sheds, trampolines(if you still have one), and other outdoor objects. Once you and your family feel prepared, we encourage everyone to remain indoors, stay warm, and avoid unnecessary travel while the winds pass through.

Stay safe, Palmer.

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Chief Chad Cameron of Palmer Fire & Rescue. He dedicated his entire life serving others, his family, his fellow firefighters and his community. He was a man who loved and cared for everyone he met. We will miss him dearly, but the impacts he made on this community will last forever.
