Help protect your hearing! Fireworks can reach 140 decibels and exceed 160 decibels. That’s like standing next to a jet taking off.
Remember to wear earplugs or earmuffs to protect your hearing.

Honored to provide coverage at the Area D Mutual Aid Command Post in the city of El Monte tonight along with @azpd_jwu.
Officers and staff from the Area D Mutual Aid Platoon agencies, which includes departments from throughout the Pomona and San Gabriel Valleys, including the Irwindale Police Department, are providing patrol coverage in El Monte while their police department deals with the loss of their two officers.
Proud to play a small part in helping them during this difficult time.

This afternoon the Foothill Fire Chiefs had the honor of presenting Chief Brad Dover his retirement plaque and enjoying one last lunch with him.
Thank you for your years of service, for your leadership, for your support to Emergency Management and for supporting Area D. It’s been a pleasure working with you.

After 28 years in the fire service, Fire Chief Brad Dover has made the decision to retire on June 24th.
Brad began his career with Monrovia in 1994 as a fire cadet, and was hired into a full-time firefighter role in 1998. In 2016, Brad was appointed as the Fire Chief after serving in every role in the Department at some point in his career. And in 2019, he even served as Interim City Manager. During his years in Monrovia, Brad has been instrumental in advancing a variety of operational enhancements in both the fire department and throughout city services.
Chief Dover always placed others before himself and worked tirelessly to lead the amazing men and women of the department. He sought and received competitive grant funding to reduce wildfire risk; planned, budgeted and designed a new ladder truck; and earned a reclassification of a high class 2 ISO rating which lowers property insurance premiums for all residents in Monrovia! Brad also helped create a road map to a better and stronger department that has led to the many successes and accolades in recent years. Chief Dovers leadership ability in times of crisis lead our community through the Bobcat Fire and COVID-19 Pandemic.
Monrovia Firefighters congratulate Chief Brad Dover on a successful career and a legacy that has become part of the City of Monrovia and its Fire & Rescue Department forever!

It can get VERY hot across the Southwest during the summer, so remember to hydrate and avoid going outside during the hottest part of the day.
Check out this video our friends @nwsvegas created illustrating the dangers of extreme heat and how you can keep yourself safe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdk-M0q8IF0

Dust storms can strike suddenly and can reduce visibility down to zero. If you're driving, make sure to remember this saying: Pull aside, stay alive! Also be aware of the hazardous air quality! #Monsoon2k22 #CAwx
Cooling trend continues today and Monday, but hot conditions to return - especially Wed-Thu. Coastal areas will be much hotter than today. Plan ahead now for the next round of heat. #cawx #BeatTheHeat
