The Fire season is here and with temperatures over 100 this weekend, many became aware. Many areas have been mowed but there are many areas that still need worked on, and as winds come up and temperatures increase, the fire danger increases. Sacramento City held high level meetings last week to discuss a crackdown on illegal fireworks over the upcoming 4th of July holiday which presents a fire problem every year. Last year there were more than 500 calls to fire officials over the 4th holiday period. The City Fire Chief reported the department team has confiscated 73 pounds of illegal fireworks in just one day last week. As a move toward safety the City of Sacramento will hold two amnesty days, June 10th and June 22, for anyone having illegal fireworks can turn them in to the Fire Department and not face arrest.
