Cold weather presents a challenge for fire fighting crews. As water freezes, not only does it challenge the fire fighters, who can get wet and cold, but also equipment that can freeze.

In this fire, you can see how the wind and spray from the fire hoses have made the burnt home almost picturesque.

There was no one in the home, and no one was injured.

The Ontario Fire Marshall’s office will be investigating.

Thunder Bay Fire Rescue set up a command post to co-ordinate fire fighting efforts.
