As the D.C. region faces off against continuing sleet 鈥� on top of inches’ worth of snowfall 鈥� the governors of both Maryland and Virginia spoke with 海角社区app to discuss their state’s storm responses.
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore joined 海角社区app’s Ian Crawford Sunday morning to talk about how state crews are keeping up with the constant snowfall.
“This is still a very dangerous storm,” Moore said. “But I’m really proud of the work that our first responders are doing all around the state.”
Moore also talked about federal assistance for the state, how his military experience helped prepare him to help others during significant weather events and the state’s ability to provide non-snow services when the storm moves on.
Spanberger says emergency room visits increase during winter storm
Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger told 海角社区app鈥檚 John Aaron that the state is seeing an increase in emergency room visits due to hypothermia and cold exposure, as well as carbon monoxide exposure.
The latter is 鈥渃oncerning,鈥� as more people attempt to use their generators at home to stay warm.
鈥淭he fumes are deadly,鈥� Spanberger said. 鈥淧eople should know that. Generators should be used outside and always, always know that you should never use gas or charcoal grills or camping stoves inside homes, inside basements, inside garages or near windows.鈥�
