PSA: Ice Safety Warning
Although temperatures have been very cold, we have yet to see consistent freezing conditions to make the ice safe for winter activities. Earlier today, our crews responded to a minor rescue involving a person who experienced a medical event while on the ice at the town reservoir.
Fortunately, the individual did not fall through the ice, but our team observed several areas with dangerous ice conditions.
Temperatures are expected to rise above freezing again this weekend, further impacting ice safety. Please stay off the ice and prioritize safety for yourself and others.

Last night, a fast-moving brush fire was stopped by #yourlexingtonfirefighters from A Group. The fireβs close proximity to elderly housing made a quick and effective response critical. Thanks to their efforts, the fire was contained before it could threaten nearby residents.
Please remember: fire danger remains High. #lexington #lexingtonma #brushfire #firedanger #fire π·@matty_kam @TownOfLexMA @MassDFS

Today, Ladder 1 came to the rescue to save a woodpecker trapped in a chimney. The little bird was thrilled to be back in the open air and quickly flew off in search of a birdbath! This marks the second successful bird rescue of Lt. McKinney's career! #birdlovers #woodpecker
