Westchester Insider: Westchester County Legislator Damon Maher 10th District: We'll love our firefighters.

 

...but they can't help immediately in a fire unless you clear the snow from the hydrant closest to you.

I have a fire hydrant across the street from my house on my very elderly neighbor's property, but where is it??Seven minutes later, there it is, with me and my ergonomically designed, bent shovel. Remember also to give first responders for potential medical emergencies (and again it is often firefighters, who are all EMTs in these parts, who arrive first) a clear, de-iced path to your garage or front door.

Be well, be safe!
