Being Ready means homeowners should surround their homes with "defensible space." In fact, at least 100 feet of space between the home and the surrounding wildland area must remain cleared.
Wildfires can spread by flying embers landing on homes up to a mile away. Being Ready also means homeowners should cover their homes with fire-resistant materials. The roof is most vulnerable to wildfire dangers, so roofs should be made of materials such as composition, metal or tile.
This is expected to be a very active wildfire season, prepare now to Be Ready!
