West Webster members provided coverage at all three stations during the April windstorm. During the storm, West Webster firefighters handled approximately 30 calls for service including a tree through the house with a person pinned by the tree. West Webster firefighters worked to free the person pinned by the tree and had this individual extricated within 30 minutes. The patient sustained minors injuries, but due to quick work of West Webster, the injuries were limited. During this incident, West Webster was assisted by Webster Fire (fill-in), Northeast Quadrant ALS, and Monroe County Special Operations team.

West Webster firefighters responded to numerous tree down calls, wire down calls, and other calls for service.
