Thank you @FabriziaLimon for donating hand sanitizer! Another generous example of a local family owned business doing their part to help out during these challenging times.

Congratulations to Firefighter/Paramedic’s Kyle Keegan and Ryan Malone for their graduation from the Massachusetts Fire Academy 10 week recruit program.

The communities served by @SSRECC911 formed a drive by parade today to say “thank you” and show our respect for what they do 24/7/365 during #NationalPublicSafetyTellecommunicatorsWeek. Fire/Police/EMS from Cohasset, Hingham, Hull and Norwell drove by their center in Hingham.

@regancarpet Right now there are multiple trees and wires down throughout town. Fire crews have responded to more than 25 storm related calls in the last 8 hours. HMLP and DPW are working hard to clear all of the reports of trees down and power outages.

@HinghamFire Any info about the current outage in South Hingham?

Heavy winds and rain are expected throughout the day. Please be careful of all downed lines. Always assume all downed lines are live. Please stay away and call 911!

We are all in this together! This rock was found near the crosswalk outside Station 3. @HinghamPolice @HinghamSchools @southshorehosp @StopandShop @WholeFoods

Thank you @MassEMA for coordinating the delivery of much needed PPE supplies.
