WPFD is working an injury accident near 800 Stewart Road. Please be prepared to wait or detour around crews working in the road and trying to move the vehicle.

From the remnants of Hurricane Beryl, WPFD Crews worked in the storms aftermath to gain emergency access to any of the roads in our district. We do this so that if an emergency occurs that we can get our fire trucks and personnel to the next call. It is often that we think about the next call. Getting our gear ready, getting our people ready, and ensuring we are ready to go. So, even when things get quite stormy and we get soaking wet (Josh here is soaking wet like we all were in this storm) we make sure the road is open enough to get us to the next call. We are not landscapers or road crews with heavy timber equipment. We get the road open enough to ensure we can get through and that someone traveling hopefully won’t strike the tree with their vehicle. This is just one of the many things we do in our community. Have you got what it takes? Give us a call or visit your local firehouse. Lets talk. #NeighborsHelpingNeighbors.

It is that time of year where folks set things on fire for fun and festive celebrations. We hope you have a great time celebrating our freedom with family and friends. Please remember to stay a safe distance from fireworks and only light them in areas that are safe and keep kids away from the more dangerous devices. Have a safe holiday!

Hydrating, y’all It is a must do. Try it in the shade or find a cool spot to sit this one out today. Stay safe!
