This past fall, a fire that occurred in Western Massachusetts was caught on a surveillance camera. Using that footage, we’ve created a timelapse video to demonstrate how fast fires can grow out of control. The timelapse shows how important early detection can be.

It's that time of year again! Please take some time to get out there and clear the snow off catch basins so that they drain before the upcoming rain tonight. Clogged basins can cause stormwater to flood.
