The cold weather presented a challenge for firefighters early Friday morning as they responded to a house fire in Briarcliff Manor.

The incident occurred on Elm Road. The cause of the fire remains unclear.

Chief Michael King, of the Briarcliff Manor Fire Department, tells News 12 that icy conditions presented a challenge.

“Right now it's like an ice-skating rink up there,” he says.

Firefighters from the Ossining and Briarcliff Manor fire departments worked to get the fire under control.

Officials say no one was home at the time of the fire. No injuries have been reported.
