Fire Bans Hit Washington Oregon | Seattle News

Fourth of July weekend means extreme fire danger across Washington and Oregon — the BLM has slapped strict fire bans on all public lands, with local areas adding even more closures. Don’t even think about fireworks, campfires, or steel-tipped ammo — one spark could cost you $100K, a year in jail, and you’ll foot the bill to put out the blaze. Over 300 wildfires already this year in Washington, plus a declared drought emergency — dry conditions and heat are the real culprits. Stay safe, stay smart, and don’t risk it.

Renton Police Use Drones to Crack Down on Illegal Fireworks | Seattle News

Renton police are cracking down hard on illegal fireworks this Fourth of July, deploying drones to hunt down violators after voters banned them — and it’s the top complaint every year. Just days ago, officers responded to a mortar blast at Ron Regis Park, tracked two suspects into the woods via drone, and eventually impounded a car containing 16 large fireworks after a tense standoff. With drones patrolling all weekend, police warn: don’t light up the sky illegally — or face a tow, a ticket, and the real danger of fire and injury.
