    BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — For many people, Memorial Day Weekend means it’s time to break out the grill, coinciding with the unofficial start of summer.

    Here’s how much more your Memorial Day barbecue will cost this year

    Friday morning on Wake Up, Lt. Rayshad Russell from the Buffalo Fire Department joined us to talk about avoiding potential perils.

    Here are some tips for safe grilling:

    • Propane and charcoal grills should only be used outdoors
    • Grills should be placed well away from house and deck railings
    • Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the grilling area
    • Never leave your grill unattended

    Hear more of what Lt. Russell shared with us in the video above.
