Re: [LM_NET] candle fire

[Cynthia Thompson <cthompson@SBO.HAMPTON.K12.VA.US>]

FYI - Never light candles during a storm with high winds, 
especially during a hurricane.  If there are high winds and a 
danger of windows being blown in, candles become a fire 
hazard.  In weather like this, itÕs sometimes difficult, if not 
dangerous, for firefighters to respond to calls for help.  
Flashlights are your safest choice.
