london fd ... shift at soho station

https://youtu.be/_GsPtWCb9sA

inside look at royal opera house

they have 2 engines and 1 ladder

officer wears HT on breast ... no speaker microphone

daily routine

training with aerial water flow

1 mobilise message heard with tones

they have 1 station with 3 units instead of 3 stations with 1 unit
each ... therefore ... average response time is 6 minutes for first
engine

Whitney SC FD has comms info on their website

https://www.whitneyfd.org/communications/

they have a link to Broadcastify

and they list their radio channels

keywords ... openness ... live scanner audio

aerial video

North Conway NH has a bld fire

from broadcastify

first page at 1451 hours edt for North Conway FD .... fire in room 359
... spreading to other rooms ... unknown if anyone in room

1452 ... fire unit 15C4 says heavy fire coming from south end of bld
(as he drives by] ... orders "first alarm"

1453 ... more tone sets ... N Conway FD all units + 1 engine from
Conway FD + 1 engine from Redstone FD to cover North Conway Fire
Station

1457 ... "15 engine 1" enroute with crew of 4

1457 ... per dispatcher ; kids reported to be jumping off 3rd floor
balcony .... maybe a sheriff unit radioed that info to the dispatcher
on some other channel

1458 .. strike "2nd alarm and make sure that Conway brings their Tower"

1458 ... 15 Engine 1 at scene and requests orders

1459 .... dispatcher says that everyone is off the 3rd floor balcony

fire weather classifications in usa

class 1 to 5 ... low to extreme

natl wx radio ... fire weather watch and then red flag alert

fema daily ops brief uses nws storm prediction center maps that show
... elevated + extreme + critical + isolated dry thunderstorms +
scattered dry thunderstorms

wildfire agencies use burn index and haines index and staffing level
and preparedness level and dispatch levels and response levels etc

federal agencies use ' presuppresion funding" and "severity funding"
... I think that severity funding usually involves moving 'out of
area' resources into the targeted area ... and maybe some extra
aircraft ... but most of the initial attack forces are still funded
from the presuppresion budgets ... this is all 'bean counter' talk

.............................

In the spring of 2020, the areas recording the greatest numbers of
deaths were much more likely to vote Democratic than Republican," read
an analysis from Pew Research published in March. "But by the third
wave of the pandemic, which began in fall 2020, the pattern had
reversed: Counties that voted for Donald Trump over Joe Biden were
suffering substantially more deaths from the coronavirus pandemic than
those that voted for Biden over Trump."

4/19/2022 8AM: Summit Fire and USFS Fire are responding to a small
flare-up that has started inside the burn area of a fire that started
near Doney Park a few days ago. The fire was called the Tunnel fire
and is located off Schultz Pass Rd northwest of Doney Park. The
flare-up is small in size and not threatening any structures at this
time.

4/19/2022 11:20 AM: The Timberline area WEST of Hwy 89, including
Hutchinson Acres and Wapatki Trail neighborhoods, are now in the SET
stage due to a wildfire burning in the area. Residents should be
making preparations to evacuate if ordered by CCSO.

FROM COCONINO NF: The "Tunnel" wildfire is up to 11 acres and growing
due to wind conditions; we are responding and dispatching aviation
resources. This wildfire is in the Timberline neighborhood, southeast
of the peaks.

At least one air tanker is responding from Winslow. Tanker 105.

lets convert the 4 passenger remote controlled unit to a wildfire
heltanker . .... 1,000 pound payload ... maybe 100 gallons of water
... and it could respond day or night in a direct 'as the crow flies'
route to the scene

100 gallons is not very much ... but maybe if it was on patrol and
could reach a scene in 5 minutes ... maybe you could prevent the next
conflagration

would atc in suburban areas be simple? just follow the normal rules of
the road ... 150 feet above the road ... maybe fly over the sidewalks
instead of the actual roadways ... treat every intersection as a
rotary ... or do all northbound traffic at 150 feet . all southbound
traffic at 200 feet .. all eastbound traffic at 250 feet .. and all
westbound traffic at 300 feet etc ... anybody on a diagonal fly at
400 or 500 feet ... or do dynamic atc ... maybe the right of way rules
used by boats would be useful ... or maybe just fly freeform ... for
any predicted collisions, the craft to the right could always climb by
50 feet

Re: Idaho FD is short handed

at the $2M fire ..... first chief arrived with fire showing ...
first alarm was maybe 3 engines and 2 ladders ... units arrived
between 5 and 7 minutes after dispatch .... maybe 10 minutes later 2
more engines were requested ... and then the 2nd alarm was ordered 20
minutes after the first alarm

very approx times ... I can go back thru Broadcastify tape and get exact times

Even before watching the full video , I suggest that even Simple Simon
could question whether all Vitamins D are equal . D3 and D2 are two
separate forms that are synthesized differently . Another point is
Vitamin D needs Magnesium to Transport it to the relevant Cells . It
also needs other co - factors to maximise the effectiveness of any
supplemental ingestion . Just saying ! ! !

Which is why we should get our vitamins and other nutrients from food

@Diane D Apart from not identifying type of D was used in research ,
they hadn't verified the before and after levels of Vitamin D in each
subject . The levels used ( 3200 Iu's ) means it wasn't a therapeutic
amount , 20 ,000 would have been the appropriate sum . Did you know
some people living in Alaska take 50 , 000 ?

what are the odds that they will "accidentally" start a fire that

$21M is 200 to 300 people in my book ... lets hope they are also
trained to fight fires

lets hope that USFS fire stations are doubled also

Cheshire County NH ... starting new EMS

https://www.sentinelsource.com/news/local/improving-communication-staffing-are-top-priorities-for-keenes-new-fire-chief/article_c32ffaaa-091b-5df6-a8bf-33ef3075bdcd.html

wow ... first I have heard about this

EMS has been split for a long time in the county between FD and
private ... iirc there are only 3 or 4 staffed ambulances in the
county ... Keene FD + DeLuzio Amb (private] + ? Walpole Amb ? ... and
all the FDs and police do first response on medical calls

DiLuzio operates from Keene .. and is dispatched (?pt?] by SWNH
Dispatch ... as are all FDs in the area

this article says that Keene FD typically has 9 FF/pm on duty ... it
was bumped up to 10 on duty in Aug 2021

For those of you who study neurolinguistics when Trump speaks at a
rally he has this cadence and it's I believe hypnotizing them and he's
flattering them and telling them that they are the elites and the
press is the enemy. And they're in the club!!!! #MAGACult

wears valley tn fire info at Wikipedia

https://web.archive.org/web/20220410140454/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wears_Valley,_Tennessee

lol lol

nothing to see here

if you read thru this and glance at the references you would think
that only 40 homes burnt .... not 250 ... and this is a full 10
days after the fire started

how is it that the info on wikipedia is so bad nowadays ... is it
intentional? who is pulling the strings? is this another democratic
process that has been decapitated?

considering that they lost 40 homes in a fire in 2016 you might think
that wikipedia would have some info about the wears valley fire
department ... lol lol lol .... nerds dont like fire departments
... might get their nails dirty

Hi. I was the one that reported the fires. We lived on top of Hatcher
mountain and to us when we reported it it appeased to be a fallen
power line. We lost power right before we noticed the flames and we
were grateful to get out and our animals as well.
