Fourth of July Weekend is just around the corner and so is fire season.Unlike last year when high fire danger started early, we are still in Moderate Fire Danger.
Since Missoula is surrounded by forestland, and many homes and developments are in what is called 'the wildland urban interface', preparing a defensible space around residential property is essential.
Earlier this summer Missoular eached Extreme fire danger levels, and with all the storms this week Emergency Management Director Adriane Beck says we may reach it again soon.
