Anybody up for some spring cleaning? Clearing your home's roof and gutters from leaves and twigs can go a long way in preventing the spread of a wildfire caused by wind-blown embers landing among dry debris. 💨💥🍂 Bonus points for using noncombustible gutter covers!

The reckoning has begun for the Callery pear tree virginiamercury.com/2024/04/23/sta…
Deciduous (ex: ash, birch, maple) & coniferous trees (ex: cedar, fir, juniper) have many differences, including leaf shape & how they reproduce. Some species exhibit features of both types of trees, and they are called deciduous conifers (ex: larch, baldcypress, dawn redwood).
If you see a firefighter, thank them. It's been a rough week for them. All fire updates will be on WHSV.com as they continue to work toward full containment.
Now that things have calmed a bit, I want to genuinely thank EVERYONE who had any part in fighting the fires. From FF, to police, volunteers, Forestry, EMs, first responders, everyone. We have no deaths to report, & that's amazing. whsv.com/2024/03/23/new…
Thank you to the amazing men and women who are working to protect Page County. We received rain overnight, but there's still a lot of work to be done, and I ask everyone to stay safe and keep praying.
On Friday, after coordinating with state legislators and Page County leadership, I initiated a Regional Emergency Response Effort supporting ongoing firefighting efforts. Read my full update here: governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/news-…
**UPDATE 1:30 pm 3/22** The Taylors Gap fire is 100% contained. @ForestryVA will continue to monitor for flare ups. Areas inside the fire lines can continue to smolder & produce smoke for days, but we anticipate the rain Friday night to cool the area & reduce the amount of smoke.
Between noon-8 pm on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, career and volunteer units from Albemarle County responded to 19 brush fires across the county. Three of those brush fires evolved into major working incidents that lasted overnight and into Thursday, March 21, 2024.
