As wildfire risk remains heightened across Georgia, stay prepared with these simple steps (CDC):🟩 If you see or smell wildfire smoke, limit time outdoors. Keep windows and doors closed to maintain clean air indoors. 🟩 Stay tuned to local news for air quality updates.🟩 Close windows, vents, and blinds prior to an evacuation.🟩 Prepare for wildfires by knowing multiple, potential escape routes.🟩 Prepare a go-kit with essentials to take during an emergency.🟩 Have a dual-sensor smoke alarm on each level of your home, and test it monthly.Taking small steps now helps the community be prepared! 💪#WildfirePreparedness #wildfiresmoke #EmergencyPreparedness #district2publichealth ...
