Firefighters Warn: Don’t Light Fires Now | Nottingham News

Firefighters are sounding the alarm over dangerous bonfires and burning vegetation in Ashfield, after a surprise blaze erupted on Sunday night — sparked by a landowner who didn’t even know it was lit. With scorching, dry conditions making everything flammable, even rain won’t cut it to lower fire risk. These fires can spread fast, endangering homes, wildlife, and crews — and deliberate outdoor fires have nearly doubled from last year. Stay safe: no fires in parks or woods, extinguish cigarettes properly, barbecue only where allowed, and if you spot a fire, get to safety first then call 999. A little caution now could save a lot later. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
