Last night crews continued to train on Truck Company Operations with a focus on seating assignments, search and rescue and going over various techniques for cutting holes in roofs for ventilation. Tower 10 has been a focus for UCFD and crews continue to train hard on improving so we can provide the best service possible to the residents we serve.
Thanks guys! A lot of people don’t realize what you do when not responding to a call. So much behind the scenes and the word “volunteer” gets overlooked as well. We appreciate it!

Timeline Photos⚠️ A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for our region this afternoon until tomorrow morning.
Ice storms can be very dangerous! Just 1/2 inch of ice on power lines can add 500 lbs to a span. Also, be sure to keep a #safetyfirst mentality when out on the roads — conditions will be slick.
Outages are possible. Learn how to prepare for any incoming storm: peco.com/storm. REMEMBER: you can receive the latest updates by signing up for outage alerts: peco.com/alerts
Fear not, perhaps the Delco "Bubble" will do it's job and protect us!
