ESFI cautions Buffalo-area residents about post-storm electrical hazards
In the aftermath of the severe snow storms that ravaged the Buffalo recently and the current warm temperatures giving way to melting snow, the Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI) is encouraging Buffalo residents to be aware of the potential dangers that can result when water comes in contact with electricity.
The U.S. National Weather Service has issued a flood warning for Monday and also cautioned residents to beware of falling snow-covered trees as well as downed power lines and resulting power outages.
