Happy Thanksgiving...but don't invite us unexpectedly! Thanksgiving is the leading day of the year for cooking equipment fires, with three times as many cooking fires as an average day. Here are some reminders on how to keep your family safe in the kitchen!
Cook With Caution:
• Be on alert! If you are sleepy or have consumed alcohol, don’t use the stove or stovetop.
• Stay in the kitchen while you are frying, grilling, or broiling food. If you leave the kitchen for even a short period of time, turn off the stove.
• If you are simmering, baking, roasting, or boiling food, check it regularly, remain in the home while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you that you are cooking.
• Keep anything that can catch fire — oven mitts, wooden utensils, food packaging, towels, or curtains — away from your stovetop.
If You Have a Cooking Fire:
• Just get out! When you leave, close the door behind you to help contain the fire.
• Call 9-1-1 or the local emergency number after you leave.
• If you try to fight the fire, be sure others are getting out, and you have a clear way out.
• Keep a lid nearby when you’re cooking to smother small grease fires. Smother the fire by sliding the lid over the pan
and turn off the stovetop. Leave the pan covered until it is completely cooled.
• For an oven fire, turn off the heat and keep the door closed.
#HappyThanksgiving

UPDATE: 911 phone lines and network are back to normal.
Please don’t “test” your 911 service (or dial 911 & hang-up). Doing so prevents us from answering calls from those in need of emergency aid. 911 = EMERGENCIES ONLY.
An outage is affecting 911 service at South Sound 911. If you have an emergency in Pierce County and your call doesn't go through, call 253-382-5000.

Update: Crews are continuing to extinguish hot spots; our Fire Marshals, along with ATF Seattle Field Division are investigating the cause. Remider: 15th Street SE is down to one lane southbound. #puyallupfire
UPDATE: Multiple areas are smoky/smoldering and will continue for several DAYS.
Heavy machinery has allowed us to reach most of the smoldering areas enabling better access for our fire marshals and the ATF to start Investigating inside what remains of the building. The fire investigators will be on the scene for several days. Once completed, It will be turned over to the owner. #puyallupfire #centralpiercefire #puyallup
The cold storage fire is very dynamic. At times throughout the day, you will see large amounts of smoke/flames. At this point, there are NO evacuations in place; however, that could change. Our priority is to keep our community safe; please monitor social media and reverse 911. #puyallupfire #puyallup #centralpierce #piercecounty
The evacuation order has been lifted and is now a shelter in-place. All residents, who have been evacuated, may now return home. Go inside. Close all windows and doors. Below is the LINK to the official shelter in place guidelines by the department of health.
