Blizzard Slams Baltimore Area
February 11th, 2010
Over the past few days, two large weather patterns dumped over two feet of snow on Jacksonville and the surrounding area. This was quite a change from the very mild winters that Maryland has experienced over the past few years. All of the equipment was put in 4-wheel drive and chained up in preparation for the storm. Members staffed the station around-the clock to battle poor road conditions and respond to a call volume that was higher than normal due to the inability of people to get out of their homes and the ones that did get out of their homes having car accidents. Jacksonville and other fire companies were joined by the National Guard who provided additional 4x4 support with Humvees. Luckily, none of our members or equipment experienced any injuries or damage throughout the weather event.
