Potsdam Fire ran a total of 11 calls from on June 18 with 10 of them between 3:50pm-8:50pm. A large storm hit Potsdam and a Tornado watch was issued. These calls ranged from power lines down to trees on power lines, fire alarms, trees on houses, and traffic control for intersections without power. Thank you to the St. Lawrence County Sheriff’s Deputies for assistance with traffic control and to National Grid for getting power back to the area quickly.
