Christmas tree fire hazard
The State Fire Marshal's Office is reminding Tennesseans with natural, fresh-cut Christmas trees in their homes to take care to keep them in water, because of the fire risk posed when they are allowed to dry out.
"The National Fire Protection Association reports that there is an estimated annual average of 210 home structure fires that begin with Christmas trees," says State Fire Marshal and Commerce and Insurance Commissioner Leslie A. Newman. "Properly maintaining a cut Christmas tree's moisture content of more than 100 percent by keeping it in water significantly reduces the chance that its needles will dry out and pose a fire hazard." www.wdalaw.com
