🔥🏠 Cooler Weather Is Here — Is Your Home Ready? 🍂

As temperatures begin to drop, many families are turning on their furnaces for the first time this season or enjoying a cozy fire in the fireplace.

Before you turn up the heat, your local fire department wants to remind you that a few simple safety precautions can help prevent a house fire!

🔥 FURNACE SAFETY
✅ Replace or clean your furnace filter.
✅ Keep boxes, clothing, and other flammable items away from heating equipment.
✅ Make sure vents and exhaust pipes are clear.
✅ Have your heating system inspected by a professional.
✅ Pay attention to unusual smells or sounds.

🪵 FIREPLACE SAFETY
✅ Have your chimney inspected and cleaned as needed.
✅ Burn only dry, seasoned firewood.
✅ Always use a protective fireplace screen.
✅ Keep furniture, decorations, and other flammable materials at least 3 feet away.
✅ Never leave a fire burning unattended.

🚨 DON’T FORGET!
Make sure your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors are working properly. Test them regularly!

❤️ Our goal is to keep our community warm AND safe this fall and winter!

💬 Here’s a question for our community: Have you turned your furnace on for the first time this season, or are you still holding out?

Stay warm, stay safe, and help us spread the word by sharing these reminders with your friends and neighbors!

🔥 Monday’s not the day to play with fire! 🔥

Elevated fire danger is in the forecast for Monday, with gusty southwest winds, low humidity, and dry fuels creating the perfect recipe for a fire to get out of hand in a hurry.

We love a good fire at Montgomery Fire… when we’re the ones controlling it! 😉🚒

Please use extra caution, avoid activities that could spark a fire, and hold off on burning Monday. A small spark can quickly become a big problem when conditions are this dry and windy.

Help us keep our community safe and our firefighters at work or home with their families instead of chasing fires all day!

Stay safe, Montgomery County! ❤️🚒

🍂🎃 October is here—and so is fall festival season! 🎃🍂

Pumpkin patches, hayrides, bonfires, food trucks, craft booths, corn mazes… there’s a lot to love about fall in our community!

As you head out to enjoy the festivals this month, your local firehouse has a few quick reminders:

🔥 Keep children a safe distance from bonfires, fire pits and outdoor heaters.
🚗 Slow down and watch closely for extra pedestrian traffic around festivals and community events.
👟 If you’re out after dark, make sure kids are easy for drivers to see.
🚒 Never park in front of fire lanes, hydrants or emergency access areas—even if you’re “just running in for a minute.”
🌾 Remember that dry grass, hay and fall decorations can catch fire quickly, so be careful with open flames.

And most importantly—have fun and enjoy fall!

We want to hear from you:
👇 What fall festival, pumpkin patch, trunk-or-treat or community event are you looking forward to this October?

Drop it in the comments so everyone can find something fun to do this fall! 🍁

House fires and highway assistance aren’t the only calls we get around here. Helping out the local farmers with equipment is also one of our skills.
We’re happy to put fires out no matter where they are.

🇺🇸 We will never forget and we will always honor the ones who were there on September 11, 2001.

Today we did the annual honor 9/11 memorial stair climb. 110 times up and down the bleachers or 6 laps around the track represents 110 stories of the World Trade Center towers. Before the towers collapsed multiple first responders and units of firefighters were deployed into the building to help people out and control the fires. Little did anyone know, the towers would crumble to the ground claiming many lives and injuring many more. The nation felt a grief that left us all in shock. That day can never be undone. That is why we join in prayer as a unit and community and climb the bleachers or walk the track. The people of 9/11 will never be forgotten.

Thank you all who said a prayer and thank you to the people who were able to make it to the school today. It was humbling joining our community for this impactful memorial.

We also want to give a big THANK YOU to Achieve Fitness, Jonesburg State Bank, Brandkamp Cabinets, Grizzly Trucking LLC, Montgomery Sales, Inc., Get Wash car wash, People and Savings Bank PSB, American Bank of Freedom, your sponsorship is greatly appreciated and we could not do it without all of you!

🇺🇸 NEVER FORGET.

Today, we remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the firefighters, police officers, EMS, and everyday heroes who ran toward danger while others ran away.

Tomorrow join us for the 9/11 Stair Climb at Montgomery County High School tomorrow at 8:00 AM. You don’t have to have signed up ahead of time—come climb with us.

Hosted by Achieve Fitness in Montgomery City, with all proceeds benefiting Montgomery County BackStoppers.

Come climb. Show support. Honor their sacrifice.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

A little before 10 PM our firefighters were called to a vehicle on fire on Interstate 70. While we were on the way, we were notified the car was fully engulfed and that things were exploding from the vehicle across the road. This caught the median on fire as well. Our engine team extinguished the car; meanwhile our tanker did a drive-by spraying of the median, quickly extinguishing that part of the fire within a minute or two.

Thanks to all those that assisted with the call:

Montgomery County, MO Dispatch
Montgomery County Ambulance District
