With Blizzard In Rearview, Wyckoff Police Give Storm Statistics

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — After 27.9 inches of snow fell in parts of Bergen County during Monday's blizzard, Wyckoff police gave some statistics of their own.

The Wyckoff police said that during the storm:

• Police, fire, and EMS handled 30 calls for service.
• Eight were for disabled vehicles.
• Two were for crashes
• Three were medical calls
• Two were calls for downed trees or wires.

During storms, police advised, "Treat all wires as live and contact the Wyckoff Police Department immediately if any are observed on the ground or low hanging."

Police reminded residents not to push their snow into the street, which could subject them to $500 fines.

After the last major snowstorm, on Jan. 25, police cited 13 Wyckoff property owners and tenants for neglecting to remove snow and ice from the sidewalks near their property. In that storm, Bergen County towns amassed more than 9 inches of snow in that storm.

Police said, "The Township of Wyckoff appreciates all of its emergency workers for working through this Blizzard weather event as well as all residents in doing their part to clear their sidewalks."

If you see any hazardous or unsafe conditions, call the Wyckoff Police immediately at 9-1-1 for emergencies, or (201) 891-2121 for non emergencies.
