Safety Tips for High Winds: • Secure Outdoor Items • Ensure Windows and Doors are Secure • Stay Indoors When Possible • Prepare for Potential Power Outages • Avoid Driving During High Winds • Prepare Emergency Kits • Report Suspicious Activity • Be Prepared for Red Flag Conditions • Monitor Weather Alerts View the full news release at Bit.ly/CityofPasadena…

Pasadena Fire Chief Chad Augustin has directed the activation of Red Flag Parking Restrictions within the city. This alert is effective from 7 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 7, through the afternoon of Wednesday, January 8, based on weather conditions. An extension of the Red Flag Day is possible. A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions are expected. This, in combination with dry fuels, could create extreme fire danger and/or fire behavior. Please use caution with potential fire sources. Now's the time to review your evacuation plans and make sure emergency kits are stocked with everything you need should you have to evacuate.
