Montgomery County Fire and Rescue is seeing an "increased tempo" in storm-related response calls from across the county, according to a 9 p.m. video update.
So far, there have been no reports of major injuries or damage, according to Bill Delaney, program manager for Community Life Safety Education and Social Media in Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services' Office of the Fire Chief.
Fire and Rescue personnel have been responding to calls, including downed trees on the roadway and trees falling on homes and on wires, along with water rescues.
Two citizens who called for water rescues from their cars were out and safe when responders arrived, Delaney said.
MCFRS has dedicated six swift boat teams to water rescue response, according to the update.
"Naturally, with the wind we've had and the rain, this is to be expected," said assistant chief Scott Goldstein in a video update.
