Community: Altadena Sheriff's Station releases Halloween safety tips
 
Halloween is meant to be a special treat for children and adults alike, but many of its hallmarks, costumes and decorations pose fire, safety and other accident hazards. Altadena Sheriff's Station, Pasadena Police Department, Fire and Public Health Officials offer the following tips and reminders to help all witches, ghosts and ghouls enjoy a safe Halloween.

Costumes
• Wear a costume that is easily seen by others, especially motorists, and is easy to walk in.
• Avoid costumes with billowy, long-trailing fabric that can easily ignite or be a tripping hazard.
• Make sure masks fit properly and eye holes are large enough to easily see out.
• Consider wearing facial make-up instead.

Candles and Decorations
Halloween is one of the top five days of the year when candles are used, and according to the National Fire Protection Association, candles cause about 15,000 house fires each year, more than 1,200 serious injuries, close to 200 deaths and $450 million in property damage.

• Always use caution with candles and never leave lit candles unattended.
• Dried flowers, cornstalks and crepe paper are highly flammable. Keep these and other decorations well away from open flames and heat sources, including light bulbs and heaters.
• Keep all exists clear of decorations and have a fire extinguisher nearby.
• Consider using flashlights or battery-operated candles instead.
• Light candles inside Jack o’ Lanterns with long, fireplace-style matches or utility lighters.
• Make sure children are watched at all times when around lit candles. Be sure young ones know how to stop, drop, roll and cover their faces if clothing catches fire.

Trick or Treating
• Always go with friends and stay in a group. Plan your route, using well-lit streets and tell your family which streets you plan to use and your return time.
• Parents or other adults should always go with the young trick-or-treaters. Everyone should use flashlights or glow-sticks to increase visibility. Use reflective tape on costumes.
• Cross only at corners, not in the middle of the block or from between parked cars.
• Review with children how to safely cross a street with by looking left, right and left again to spot approaching cars. If no sidewalk, stay as far left of the roadway as possible and walk facing traffic.
• Never eat any goodies until you are safely home and have checked all treats. Parents should help youngsters check all treats. Throw away candy or food not commercially wrapped and sealed. Notify parents and police if there are any suspicious treats.
• As an alternative, attend an organized Halloween party. It’s fun to get together with other ghosts and goblins! If your children are attending Halloween parties at others’ homes, remind them to be alert for ways out of the home in an emergency.

Adults & Motorists
• Use extra caution while driving on Halloween. Be on the look-out for trick-or-treaters.
• Celebrate responsibly and designate a driver if attending parties or other festivities.

Advisory: Los Angeles County: Santa Ana Wind Event for Wed. Night Thru Fri. Evening
 
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/lox

...Fire Weather Watch Due to Low Humidity, Offshore Winds, and Critically Dry Fuels for portions of Los Angeles County Wednesday Evening through Friday Evening...

...High Wind Watch for Potentially Hazardous Winds in the Los Angeles and Santa Monica Mountains, Wednesday Evening through Friday Evening...

MAIN IMPACTS

Extreme Fire Danger - Forecast models have been consistently advertising what looks to be one of the strongest Santa Ana events thus far this fall season.

Gusty northeasterly winds and single digit relative humidities should bring a period of critical fire weather conditions to portions of Ventura and Los Angeles Counties Wednesday night into early Thursday morning.

Then on Thursday night, winds will sharply increase across the mountains and valleys, then move down into the valley and some coastal areas in the overnight hours before peaking late Thursday night into Friday. The following summarizes the expected peak winds for specific areas:

Mountains of Los Angeles, including the Santa Monica Mountains...25 to 35 mph, with gusts to 60 mph.

Santa Clarita Valley, and The San Fernando Valley...20 to 30 mph, with gusts to 50 mph.

Los Angeles County Coast from Malibu to the Hollywood Hills...20 to 30 mph, with gusts to 45 mph.

The lowest relative humidity levels, which will be in the teens Thursday night through Friday morning, are expected to drop by Friday afternoon and evening into the single digits.

Winds will weaken overnight Friday into Saturday morning, but remain offshore and keep relative humidities low. These strong winds and low relative humidities, combined with critically dry fuels, will create a potential for extreme fire danger and the possibility of large fires Thursday evening through Friday evening.

Although gusty winds and low relative humidities are expected in the Santa Barbara County Mountains and South Coast Wednesday night and Thursday morning, relative humidity levels should remain above critical fire danger levels, with only a brief period of high winds and very low humidities expected to coincide during this time.

Hazardous High Winds - A hazardous high wind event is possible across the mountains of Los Angeles including the Santa Monica Mountains, over this same time period.

Winds are forecast to gust as high as 60 mph in the Los Angeles and Santa Monica Mountains. These winds could make travel difficult, especially for high profile vehicles across the I-5 corridor and Highway 14. Strong winds may also knock down trees and power lines and produce property damage.

SYNOPSIS

High pressure aloft and warming temperatures will build over the western U.S. for the remainder of the week starting Wednesday.

At the surface, high pressure will build over the great basin, and combined with low pressure offshore, will result in strong surface pressure gradients from the deserts to the ocean.

This pattern will produce strong northeast winds in the mountains and down into the valleys, and portions of coastal areas, within Los Angeles and Ventura Counties.

Relative humidities will eventually lower to the single digits by Friday afternoon as wind gusts peak on Friday as high as 60 mph in mountain areas, to 45 mph along some coastal areas. While winds will generally be light through the weekend, high pressure will continue to influence the area for warm and dry conditions through the weekend before a cooling trend begins next Tuesday.

Message about the heat from Captain Benedict


Agency Logo
Monday October 1, 2012, 10:31 AM

LASD - Altadena Station, Los Angeles County Sheriff

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter
Advisory: HEAT ALERT: High temperatures forecast for LA Basin Triple-digit temperatures are forecast for the LA Basin on Monday
 
HEAT ALERT: High temperatures forecast for LA Basin LOS ANGELES COUNTY – Triple-digit temperatures are forecast for the LA Basin on Monday, October 1 and Tuesday, October 2.

The Los Angeles County Health Officer would like to remind everyone that precautions should be taken, especially by older adults, caretakers of infants and children, individuals who participate in outdoor activities, and individuals who are sensitive to the heat.

“Everyone should remember to take special care of themselves, children, the elderly, and their pets. When temperatures are high, prolonged sun exposure may cause dehydration, heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke,” said Jonathan E. Fielding, MD, MPH, Director of Public Health and Health Officer. “Never leave children, elderly people, or pets unattended in vehicles, even with the windows ‘cracked’ or open, as temperatures inside can quickly rise to life-threatening levels.”

For a list of cooling centers and information on heat-related illnesses and prevention, please visit the Public Health website at http://www.publichealth.lacounty.gov/, or call the LA County Information line at 2-1-1 from any landline or cell phone within the county.

“Offer help to your family, friends, and neighbors with limited access to air conditioning and transportation, such as seniors or those who are ill. Check on them frequently or take them to a location with air conditioning,” said Dr. Fielding.

Schools, day camps, and non-school related sports organizations or athletes should take extra precautions during extreme heat. Practices and other outdoor activities should be scheduled for very early or very late in the day in order to limit the amount of time spent in the sun and heat. Heat may worsen the affects of poor air quality in areas of heavy smog.

Additional tips for those who must work or exercise outdoors:

Ensure that cool drinking water is available.
Drink water or electrolyte-replacing sports drinks often; do not wait until you are thirsty. Avoid drinking sweetened drinks, caffeine, and alcohol.
Avoid drinking extremely cold water as this is more likely to cause cramps.

Allow athletes or outdoor workers to take frequent rests.
Pay attention to signs of dehydration which include dizziness, fatigue, faintness, headaches, muscle cramps, and increased thirst. Individuals with these symptoms should be moved to a cooler, shaded place, and given water or sport drinks.

More severe signs of heat-related illness may include diminished judgment, disorientation, pale and clammy skin, a rapid and weak pulse, and/or fast and shallow breathing.

Coaches, teachers, and employers should seek immediate medical attention for those exhibiting signs of heat-related illness.
Avoid unnecessary exertion, such as vigorous exercise during peak sun hours, if you are outside or in a non-air conditioned building.

Older adults and individuals with chronic medical conditions:

During peak heat hours stay in an air-conditioned area. If you do not have access to air conditioning in your home, visit public facilities such as cooling centers, shopping malls, parks, and libraries to stay cool.

Do not rely only on open windows or a fan as a primary way to stay cool. Use the air conditioner. If you’re on reduced income, find out more about the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, by calling (866) 675-6623 or contacting your utility provider.

Older adults and those on certain medications may not exhibit signs of dehydration until several hours after dehydration sets in. Stay hydrated by frequently drinking cool water. If you’re on a special diet that limits liquids, check with your doctor for information on the amount of water to consume.

Stay out of the sun if you do not need to be in it. When in the sun, wear a hat, preferably with a wide brim, and loose-fitting, light-colored clothing with long sleeves and pants to protect yourself from sun damage. And remember sun screen and sun glasses.

Infants and Children:

It is illegal to leave an infant or child unattended in a vehicle (California Vehicle Code Section 15620).

Infants and young children can get dehydrated very quickly. Make sure they are given plenty of cool water to drink.
Keep children indoors or shaded as much as possible.
Dress children in loose, lightweight, and light colored clothing.

Pets:

Never leave a pet unattended in a vehicle, even with the windows ‘cracked’ or open.
Outdoor animals should be given plenty of shade and clean drinking water.
Do not leave pets outside in the sun.
Pets should not be left in a garage as garages can get very hot due to lack of ventilation and insulation.
