The holiday season is upon us, and while we are all excited for family and tasty holiday food, it is also a well-known fact in the Redding Fire Department that there will be a house fire in Redding on at least one - if not all of the major holidays.
According to FEMA, roughly 2,300 residential fires were reported annually in the US on Thanksgiving day between 2017 and 2019, making Thanksgiving the most fire-prone day of the year and the second leading cause of home fire deaths. Annually, an average of 128,000 fires in December resulted in 415 deaths across the US. Christmas Eve and Day rank 2nd and 3rd for the most fire-prone day of the year, with twice the daily average of reported fires.
The holidays are the time of year when families cook more often, have more guests, light more candles and fires, hang holiday lights, and celebrate with cocktails that can impair judgment and our sense of caution.
In this episode, we speak with Erick Mattson, Battalion Chief, and Sarah Roth, Fire Prevention Specialist with the Redding Fire Department, for a few Holiday Horror stories and important safety reminders that will help keep you and your family safe this season.
