Fourth of July Safety Tips You Need | Seattle News

Eastside Fire is bracing for a wild Fourth of July weekend packed with fireworks, water adventures, and risky drives — and they’re not taking chances. Last year, 58 people wound up at Harborview with fireworks injuries, not just burns but fires sparked and swimmers drained by cold water. Safety tips? Keep a 10-foot buffer around fireworks and have water ready — vendors even added pumps to let you stand farther back. Cold water can zap even strong swimmers, so free life jackets are available at some spots. And as night falls, impaired driving spikes — crews are on standby to respond to accidents before they turn tragic. Stay safe out there.
