Carmel-by-the-Sea to test early warning sirens Tuesday
happening tonight. Caramel is testing its community early warning siren. The fire chief says the siren is critical in notifying residents during an emergency. Like a wildfire test happens at 6 30 tonight, about 25 minutes from now. During a community wildlife presentation. They will focus on what you can do to stay prepared in the event of a wildfire during this dry season. We've already seen more wildfires by this time this year than we did by this time last year. The other thing that's of great concern is we had a dry winter and fuel moisture. The amount of moisture content and fuel is about two months ahead of itself. So here we are nearing the end of june and fuel moisture is more like what it would be in august. Fire chief is recommending you create and maintain dispensable space around your home. Stay prepared with a go kit, just in case you have to evacuate. Okay? Mhm.
