Be careful

Please be careful when you are outside. The risk of fire spreading very quickly is very high because it has not rained for a long time and it is windy. Don’t throw your cigarette or cigar butts on the street. Don’t bbq or light a fire on the beach. Don’t do work with machines that can give sparks, causing fire.
