Good morning, Cleburne!

FIRE SAFETY FRIDAY: IS YOUR HOME READY FOR AN EMERGENCY?

When seconds count, preparation can save lives!

Fire safety is important at every age, but older adults may face additional challenges when it comes to escaping a fire safely.

This week, the Cleburne Fire Department wants to remind our community that a few simple precautions can make a BIG difference!

✅ Make sure smoke alarms are working.
✅ Keep hallways and exits clear of obstacles.
✅ Have an escape plan that considers mobility needs.
✅ Be aware of fire hazards involving oxygen and medications.
✅ Check in regularly on older family members, friends, and neighbors.

Can you tell they love what they do? ❤️

Babysitting isn't typically part of a firefighter's job description, but these Cleburne firefighters were happy to step up! 🚒

When a babysitter experienced a medical emergency last week while caring for two 7-month-old twins, the Cleburne Fire Department responded to assist.

While crew members provided medical attention to the babysitter, two firefighters, who are both dads themselves, put their parenting skills to good use by keeping the babies safe, comfortable and cared for until their mother arrived back home. They even helped gather the babies' belongings and get them safely into the car!

Their kindness helped make a frightening situation a little easier for the family.

We're proud of our Cleburne firefighters for showing that serving the community sometimes means going beyond the job description. ❤️

What a great night with our Cleburne community! 🚒 ❤️

The Cleburne Fire Department had an awesome time at National Night Out last night! Our firefighters enjoyed getting out into the community, visiting with neighbors, sharing plenty of laughs, and, of course, enjoying some great food and even better company!

Events like National Night Out remind us that serving Cleburne is about more than responding to emergencies—it’s about building relationships and staying connected with the people we are proud to serve.

📸 Here are a few snapshots from a fun evening spent with some pretty great people!

Thank you to everyone who welcomed our firefighters and helped make National Night Out such a great time. We’re proud to be part of this community! ❤️ 🚒

Outdoor warning sirens are designed to be heard outside, so if you’re indoors, you may not hear them clearly or at all. Learn more about the sirens here: https://www.cleburne.net/278/Outdoor-Warning-Sirens.

It’s Fire Prevention Week 2026, and this year we’re powering up with an important reminder:

⚡ Safe Charging Is a Superpower! ⚡

Lithium-ion batteries are part of everyday life, but unsafe charging can create a serious fire risk. Use the charger that came with your device or one approved by the manufacturer.

Stay Safe, Cleburne! Please Remember: Turn Around, Don't Drown!

🌧️ North Texas is expecting multiple rounds of rain from moisture associated with Hurricane Polo starting Wednesday and going into the weekend.

Don’t be fooled by the recent lack of rainfall. Heavy rain falling in a short period of time can still overwhelm drainage systems and lead to localized flooding.

Know the difference between a Flood Watch and a Flood Warning, stay weather aware, and be prepared to change your plans if conditions worsen.

🚗 Remember: Turn Around, Don’t Drown.
