It's #FirePreventionWeek! "Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety." When an alarm makes noises – a beeping sound or a chirping sound – make sure you know what to do. bit.ly/3FaT3or

Do you have a plan to keep cool during this heat wave? It's a good idea to check on vulnerable neighbors, pets and livestock to make sure they are ready for rising temperatures. For more info on how to handle the heat, go to cdc.gov/extremeheat.

A happy ending this morning - our own UAS53 (drone) located a missing person who had wandered from her home into dense brush and trees sometime overnight. The UAS pilot spotted the subject with our #FLIR camera and directed deputies in. A true team effort! – at Monroe, WA

This weekend’s forecast may be over 70 degrees, but water temps remain very COLD! Cold water can kill in less than 1 minute due to cold-water shock. Safety experts define cold water as anything below 60 degrees. In Washington, most waterways stay under 60 degrees year-round.
Warm temps but cold water! – at Gold Bar, WA

SVF crews responded to a 2nd Alarm Residential fire near Index last night. Narrow roads made accessing the fire difficult, there were no hydrants in the area. The cause is under investigation. SVF is grateful for our volunteers who responded from home and mutual aid partners! – at Snohomish, WA
