Winter -Fire Hazards – FireFighters

Winter changes how fires behave and how firefighters respond.• Fires burn hotter indoors because windows stay closed.• Smoke hangs lower in cold air, reducing visibility.• Icy driveways slow access, and hydrants/hoses can freeze.Why it matters:Clear walkways, visible house numbers, and early 911 calls help crews reach you faster and work safely in winter conditions.
