Crews who specialize in wildfires and firefighters are working overtime, and Flower Mound has two extra brush trucks out. "To prepare for the fire risk, we have extra wildland personnel on staff today staffing one of our brush trucks so at least we have that apparatus readily available and able to respond quickly for a fire," Ventrca said.

Fire crews in North Texas are working to control fires caused by high winds and low humidity. Flower Mound Fire Battalion Chief Jacob Ventrca is ensuring the town is prepared, emphasizing situational awareness and mutual aid with other agencies.
