This weekend Loudoun County will experience snow conditions that have not been seen for some time. We would like to ask all residents to please help us help you. As you are shoveling your walk or sidewalk please make sure to also shovel around you nearby fire hydrant.

Please make sure that the fire hydrant near your house is accessible on all sides. In cases of emergency this can prevent possible life threatening delays.

We also want to remind residents that during these weather storms it is best to stay off the roads if at all possible.

Our last safety item is to please think about your emergency when calling 911. During these weather emergencies your local fire and rescue first responders are here to help in your time of need. If you have a Life Threatening Emergency do not hesitate and call 911. At the same time we ask that you not call 911 for non-emergency issues.
