Limit outdoor activity this weekend, hydrate obsessively and if you must work outdoors take frequent breaks and drink more than you think you need to.

JT is a special young man and we’re proud to have him as part of the Palmyra Fire family. Jesse spends his own money and effort to buy toys and trading cards to help distribute to other kids to brighten their days and how he’s expanding his efforts to supporting first responders. Jesse and his dad stopped by station 15 to drop off water and sports drinks to help our firefighters stay hydrated in this heat as well as some toys to help us brighten the days of the kids we encounter in our day to day calls. Jesse embodies community spirit, kindness and generosity and we’re proud to call him part of the family.

Follow Cards for Hope TN to learn more about how Jesse is brightening the day for kids and his community in general!

Thank you JT and Eduardo!

If you’ve ever wanted to help out in a disaster but you’re not ready to join the fire department, consider joining our neighbors in Tennessee ridge to learn what it takes to man an American Red Cross shelter during a time of need. The American Red Cross provides vital services during times of disaster both large and small scale and shelter volunteers are a critical part of that process.

Heads up everyone, we've got a slight risk for severe weather this evening. This is a great time to make sure your phones are charged ahead of time, check the batteries in your flashlights, and make sure you've got more than one way to receive alerts related to weather. This could be your phone, your computer, television, local radio stations, and of course NOAA weather radio is the gold standard for weather alerts.

A slight warning doesn't mean we should be complacent. We don't have to panic, just have a plan of what you'll do if severe weather comes, stay weather aware, and if the need arises put your plan into action.

Please stop. No really, we love you guys, and you have every right to get a burn permit and burn things in your yard right now, but PLEASE STOP. The Montgomery County Fire Department has seen an extreme rash of brush and field fires with multiple fires per day over the last couple weeks.

We know the weather is beautiful and it's great to get some outside stuff done, but it's also dry and has been windy recently.

If you do burn we ask that you have water and tools on hand to contain the fire, pay extra attention to ensure no flammables, dry grass, or anything else is near the location you're burning.

Again, we're not telling you you're not allowed to burn, if you're going to we suggest getting a permit at https://burnsafetn.org which is currently required by law, but we are strongly suggesting and practically begging that you don't bur outdoors or if you do have it in a barrel or container, have water and tools onsite to contain it if it escapes that container and most importantly, watch it closely and continuously until it's 100% out.
