In addition, local agencies including the Stanly County Fire Marshal's Office & City of Albemarle Fire Marshal's Office have also issued bans prohibiting burning.

🚨 What this means:
- No outdoor burning of any kind
- This includes campfires, bonfires, and agricultural burning

🔥 These restrictions are in place to reduce the risk of wildfires and protect lives and property during high fire danger conditions.

⚠️ Violations may result in a fine of up to $250 for a first offense.

Within 15 minutes of our post about needing help clearing our driveway, we had multiple folks reach out, some within our immediate community, and some beyond. For that we are overwhelmed and very grateful. The first to respond simply said “give me 20 minutes to load up and I’ll be there”. Direct within our community and despite my best efforts has asked to remain anonymous and both of himself and his business. “Im not doing it for recognition, just voluteering my services for our community”. We are very grateful for his help. Our crews can now make it out and back in to the station safely!

Crews have battled the elements responding to calls for service through this storm just like the last to help our community, now we are asking for help FROM our community.

We are asking for help from anyone who can come plow our driveway and parking lot of the snow to ensure we are able to safely get our apparatus out to respond. Shoot us a message if you are able to help!

🚨 Winter Storm Giana Update – Stanly County ❄️

Snow is still falling across Stanly County, and road conditions remain messy and hazardous.

First responders from across the county have responded to numerous traffic accidents, disabled motorists, and other driving-related incidents. Travel conditions continue to worsen.

🚗 Travel should be limited at all costs.
While NCDOT crews are actively working to clear roadways, even plowed roads remain dangerous, especially bridges and overpasses.

⚠️ Use extreme caution if travel is absolutely necessary.
For your safety—and the safety of responders—please stay home and off the roads whenever possible.
