Water Rescue Boat 1

1 week ago

The Moravia Fire Department was toned out today at 12:47 pm to North Main St. for a fire going into the woods and a gully from a burn pit. The wind and dry conditions were not in our favor but we were able to get in front of the fire and stop it from heading east into the woods towards Oak Hill Rd. We started West Niles FD & West Niles FD for their Rangers but we were able to control the spread of fire quickly so they stood on their floor. (First 4 pictures from North Main St)

Yesterday at 11:22 am MFD was toned out for a brush fire at Lisa’s Lane off of Rockefellar Rd (Last 6 pics from that fire) Thank you to Locke FD for their assistance bringing water with there Tanker and Engine.

This is the 3rd outside fire MFD has had in a week

****JUST A REMINDER THERE IS A NY STATE BURN BAN IN PLACE FOR A REASON. NYS DEC WILL BE RESPONDING FOR ANY OUTSIDE FIRE AND WILL ISSUE TICKETS & FINES. PLEASE DO NOT BURN AT THIS TIME.**** ... See MoreSee Less

As a retired firefighter paramedic I appreciate the difficulty of your job, and thank you for your service. I would volunteer more but disability doesn't allow.
