What to do during a fire

🚨 Evacuate Immediately

If authorities issue an evacuation order, leave right away. Do not wait to see if the fire gets closer. Follow designated evacuation routes.

😷 Protect Your Airway

Stay low to the ground where the air is cleaner. Cover your nose and mouth with a wet cloth to filter out smoke and ash if you must go outside.

🏠 Secure Your Home

If you have time before evacuating, close all windows, doors, and vents to prevent drafts from pulling fire inside. Leave exterior lights on so firefighters can see your house in the smoke.

📞 Stay Informed

Sign up for local emergency alerts (like CWS in Contra Costa). Keep a battery-operated radio tuned to local news stations for the latest updates.
