🦃🍂 Thanksgiving Safety Tips from CAFD 🍂🦃

As you gather with loved ones this holiday, please keep safety in mind so your celebrations stay joyful:

🔥 Cooking Safety: Never leave stoves or ovens unattended. Keep flammable items away from burners.

🦃 Deep Frying Turkeys: Always fry outdoors, away from structures, and ensure the turkey is fully thawed.

🚫 Avoid Distractions: Stay focused in the kitchen — most home fires start when cooking is left unattended.

🕯️ Candle Safety: Use battery‑operated candles when possible. If using real candles, keep them away from children and pets.

🚗 Travel Safety: Buckle up, drive carefully, and allow extra time for holiday traffic.

From all of us at the Cloquet Area Fire District, we wish you a safe and happy Thanksgiving with family and friends! ❤️🔥

We are tracking a dynamic system for the start of the holiday week. Rain is expected to move in Monday afternoon and continue through the night, with high temperatures reaching the mid to upper 40s. An occluded front will bring colder air Tuesday, resulting in a transition from rain to a wintry mix, especially Tuesday morning. Snow is then expected to taper off by early Thanksgiving morning. Please note: The exact storm track is still likely to change, which will heavily impact local rain vs. snow totals. Check the latest forecast before heading out!
