The Fourth of July usually means fireworks and celebrations. But this year, Rock Springs Fire Inspector Carl Blanksvard warns that you might want to think twice about that rocket's red glare.
In the cities of Rock Springs and Green River, fireworks are illegal with the exception of sparklers, caps and party poppers. But Blanksvard says even using sparklers are simply a bad idea right now.
If you are going to use sparklers, Blanksvard recommends having a bucket of water or sand to place the used rods in. He also emphasizes, that if you set off any fireworks, you should walk the perimeter following the display to make sure there are none still smoldering. Some can smolder for hours before igniting a fire.
