Ally Radio for July 7, 2023
Manage episode 370706232 series 3482443
With the Fourth of July behind us, we now look to the dog days of summer and fire season across much of the West. But, with historic levels of snowpack in the Sierra, what does our overall fire risk look like? And what can we do to help protect ourselves?
This week, the Sierra Nevada Ally's Richard Bednarski takes over the show, and chats with a local property owner about how he has built green, defensible space around his property for more than 40 years. Then, he calls up the National Interagency Fire Center, or NIFC, in Boise to learn more about how wildfire response happens and how the center works.
