Leave fireworks out of Fourth of July plans, firefighters urge
Planning on lighting fireworks this Independence Day? You may want to reconsider.
Fire departments and elected officials are begging, pleading and urging residents to not light fireworks this Fourth of July, citing the danger given recent extreme weather.
Triple-digital temperatures in the Pacific Northwest this week, along with a statewide drought, have made the likelihood of fireworks related fires rise dramatically. Fireworks on the Fourth of July are a time-honored tradition for thousands of Oregonians, but some local cities are banning the practice, out of an abundance of caution.
In Washington County, Tualatin and Forest Grove have both banned the use of fireworks in their cities, as has Portland, Wilsonville, Gresham, Milwaukie, Bend and parts of Southwest Washington.
Gov. Kate Brown announced Tuesday she will re-impose restrictions over high case counts.
The weather is warm, the days are getting longer, and close to half of all adults in Oregon have now received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.
But if Oregonians started to believe the coronavirus pandemic is behind us, Gov. Kate Brown s office and the Oregon Health Authority offered a sobering rejoinder Tuesday, April 20.
Oregon s case numbers and hospitalizations have been trending upward for weeks. Brown announced Tuesday that several more Oregon counties, including Washington and Columbia counties, will face tightened restrictions as of this weekend.
