Cold Weather, Frozen Hydrants Challenge Firefighters | WBNS-10TV, Central Ohio News

COLUMBUS, Ohio — The cold temperatures are creating challenges for firefighters.

Columbus firefighters said that they were dealing with about 80 frozen hydrants across the city and the water department has been so busy dealing with other weather-related problems that many are still frozen, 10TV's Maureen Kocot reported on Friday.

Last week, firefighters had to stop battling a garage fire in the Linden area because of a frozen hydrant.
