update on Hurricane Ian in Florida
maybe catastrophic damage and flooding in Coral Gable in Lee County -
and in Sarasota County - storm may ramp up to Cat 5 today - unknown
where landfall will be exactly - but the majority of damage will occur
there at the point of landfall - and maybe within 10 to 20 miles - per
tampa tv station - abcactionnews.com at 9am ish edt
with any luck landfall will be at that bay at coral gable and maybe
the track will go up over the bay - which should cut down on
structural damage - but that is just my guess
coral gables might get a 12 to 16 foot flood surge - check WFTX in
Coral Gables for more info

work rules for truckers
Simplified driving hours rules: max 11 hours a day driving; max 14
hours a day on duty; max 8 hours driving before 30 min break; max 70
hours on duty per 8 days on a rolling basis.
from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OU-PvXPlYQU
====================
gonna guess that most truckers drive 30% unloaded
you merge all the truckers into 1 huge dispatch system and I bet you
can cut that empty factor to 5%
then 25% of truckers could retire and party all day long - and the US
economy would not lose a single penny of useful work

3. when will you put a list of stations and apparatus on your website?
4. when will you put your budget and response times on your website?
5. is the training still underway? is it useful?

firefighters are equipped with pagers
response times to drop from 12 minutes to 3 minutes if they can get
live in firefighters ish
very very very true
very very very few rural fire stations have live in firefighters in
the USA - seems to be a huge potential there - put a mobile home next
to station - have live in firefighter take truck to scene - then go
back home and go back to sleep - nationwide fire response times would
drop by 5 minutes in rural areas - ems response times would not drop
as much since many FDs do the EMS first responder programs with
private vehicles

to evacuate or not to evacuate - that is the question
1. are you rich? if yes - fly to buffalo ny
2. if not rich - do you enjoy living in emergency shelters?
3. do you have good property insurance? if not - how long do you think
you can sit on your roof and keep it from flying away? how about
getting some cargo straps - throw them over your roof - and drive
stakes deep into the ground - (should work - 1 strap every 10 feet -
start at the edges - or use rope or electric chords or garden hose or
sheets)
4. what can we do about flooding? dirt berm around house covered by
tarps secured with stakes

Spain - excess deaths are 33% above average
https://youtu.be/WjG3VoX3Ldk
and the rest of europe is pretty high also - 16% increase
so - way too many people are dying and no one knows why - sorta - ish
maybe
wait - let me review this presentation
not really sure if these numbers are above baseline or above excess levels
remember - the total numbers of monthly deaths vary throughout the
year - winter months show higher numbers of deaths than non winter
months typically - so winter months typically have an "excess" of
deaths vs summer months
I am not sure if the baseline number of deaths is up or the number of
excess deaths is up - I think that Europe map showed increases in
"excess deaths" vs 2016 to 2019 - therefore they are saying - ' we
always expect winter death rates to be higher - but now these winter
increases are higher than ever'
but he also mentions 'heat waves' - so maybe this 16% increase is due
to the heat waves

they have a unified countywide fire system that has 12 volunteer FDs
and 6 city FDs - there is a county fire chief but he might deal mostly
with admin stuff and a hazmat team
pretty sure that each FD has their own chief still
not sure how the financing works
most FD and EMS dispatch seems to be on 154.22 - probably with full
boundary drops
there seems to be at least 1 factory that has their own FD (AOC with a
Broadcastify feed 451.375) - and there might be a couple more down at
the Mississippi border
iirc Somerville FD has a rural fire cover program that costs $100 per
year - they might cover countywide - which is odd - or maybe they
cover 100 square miles
possibly there are only 2 paid firefighters in the county - the county
chief and the assistant county chief
so I guess this is either a communist FD or a socialist FD - many
chiefs - shared resources - etc

electric cop car debuts - USA
DHS Electric Vehicle Program Accelerates with Debut of First Fully
Electric Law Enforcement Vehicle
WASHINGTON – Today, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) became
the first federal agency to debut a battery electric vehicle (EV)
fitted for performing law enforcement functions at the Federal Law
Enforcement Training Centers' Office of Cheltenham Operations. The
Ford Mustang Mach-E is the first of a variety of EVs DHS plans to
field across its varied law enforcement missions throughout the
homeland.
"DHS is leading the charge among federal agencies to transition its
fleet vehicles from internal combustion engines to zero-emission
electric vehicles. As the Nation's third largest federal agency and
largest law enforcement agency, DHS has an inventory of more than
50,000 vehicles, with law enforcement vehicles making up 60 percent of
its fleet," said Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security John Tien. "DHS
is proud to be the first Federal agency to upfit a battery electric
vehicle for law enforcement use. As we ramp up EV adoption, we are
excited to see how this and other EVs perform for our mission."
"DHS is proactively seeking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, EVs
have the potential to significantly improve federal fleet efficiency
and reduce vehicle operation and maintenance costs," said Acting Under
Secretary for Management R. D. "Tex" Alles. "DHS is also looking to
create climate-resilient facilities and infrastructure, and to
continue transitioning the DHS vehicle fleet towards electrification
in the years to come."
In April 2022, DHS completed an upfit of a Ford Mustang Mach-E as a
law enforcement vehicle with lights and sirens in accordance Federal
Protective Service standards. The Mustang Mach-E is undergoing
high-threshold testing by the Federal Protective Service to ensure it
will meet the demands required of DHS law enforcement missions. The
vehicle must be able to handle a broad spectrum of the stresses
including, high speeds, maneuverability both on- and off-road,
durability, endurance, and technical specifications. FPS is conducting
controlled performance benchmarking which includes building on
existing performance data, and an operational assessment of the
vehicle through real-world employment by Law Enforcement Officers
during their daily routines. Concurrently, FPS is conducting
cybersecurity assessments of the vehicle that will inform DHS of
potential threats, vulnerabilities, and risks associated with the
introduction of EVs into the fleet.
The DHS Climate Action Plan, which was approved by the Secretary in
September 2021, establishes a longer-range outlook that emphasizes
sustainability, energy and water resilience, and fleet
electrification. An aspect of the plan's five priority actions
includes incorporating climate adaptation planning and processes into
homeland security mission areas, including reviewing current budget
planning policies, to assess whether climate change considerations are
appropriately incorporated.

Electric Law Enforcement Vehicle
WASHINGTON – Today, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) became
the first federal agency to debut a battery electric vehicle (EV)
fitted for performing law enforcement functions at the Federal Law
Enforcement Training Centers' Office of Cheltenham Operations. The
Ford Mustang Mach-E is the first of a variety of EVs DHS plans to
field across its varied law enforcement missions throughout the
homeland.
"DHS is leading the charge among federal agencies to transition its
fleet vehicles from internal combustion engines to zero-emission
electric vehicles. As the Nation's third largest federal agency and
largest law enforcement agency, DHS has an inventory of more than
50,000 vehicles, with law enforcement vehicles making up 60 percent of
its fleet," said Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security John Tien. "DHS
is proud to be the first Federal agency to upfit a battery electric
vehicle for law enforcement use. As we ramp up EV adoption, we are
excited to see how this and other EVs perform for our mission."
"DHS is proactively seeking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, EVs
have the potential to significantly improve federal fleet efficiency
and reduce vehicle operation and maintenance costs," said Acting Under
Secretary for Management R. D. "Tex" Alles. "DHS is also looking to
create climate-resilient facilities and infrastructure, and to
continue transitioning the DHS vehicle fleet towards electrification
in the years to come."

2021 info on Weed CA
FD has 3 engines and 1 rescue truck - have live in college students
no mention of a FD at the mill
town is only 3,000 people but they have 9 FT cops and 6 FT police
dispatchers - actually the number of cops is low for the western USA
imagine if they could get all the cops and dispatchers and dpw workers
trained as firefighters - with first aid and scba training - that
would be very potent
they are looking at building a new public safety complex also
they dont have their own ambulance however

here is the damage map
very interesting
exactly how did that fire wipe out 2 neighborhoods before the 2 fire
stations could even arrive from less than 1 mile away?
1 minute delay in paging probably did not help
I wonder if there was a delayed alarm from the mill? do they have a
fire brigade? did they try to fight the fire alone? would not make
much sense since the weed city fire station was only 500 feet away
note - some blds outside fire perimeter were damaged and destroyed -
and some of lake shastina burned - looks like 50% of blds within fire
perimeter were destroyed - what does that tell us? we need a play by
play of who did what - tankers and pumpers - and we need elevation
,maps - not gonna hold my breath

info about Riverside County FD
Riverside County Fd has approx 100 fire stations - 32 are owned by
cities - 9 are owned by the state - 1 is owned by a local fire
district (38)
all 100 fire stations are dispatched by 1 dispatch center
so we could call this a 'fire coop' more than a 'real county fd'
all staffing is provided by cal fire employees or county fd reserve firefighters
==========
also - indians might have 4 or 6 stations (mostly dispatched by county
fd / cal fire) - Riverside city fd has 14 fire stations - usfs san
bern nf 9 - murietta 5 - corona ? 7 - usfs clev nf has 1 sta in

- cathedral city fd 3 - chuckwilla valley state prison 1 - hemet 5 -
idlywild fd 1 maybe dispatched by county - march arb 1 - palm springs
5 - 99% of these Fds are dispatched by their local police department
or their own dispatch center

we are not sure what the fdid listing looks like for riverside county

Duxbury L1 is a quint also
the FDs in that area dont have any brush trucks really - they all use
the breakers for any outside fires - but the state forest fire wardens
do have a coupe of smaller brush trucks without the armor iirc - maybe
type 7 engines - I guess the breakers might be type 5 or type 4
engines per the federal scheme

emergency! was pretty funny actually
johnny wants to start a barbershop quartet at the station - roy doesnt
- johnny goes to dixie for advice - they are sly and roy cant figure
out what they were talking about - dixie sings a little tune - such a
sly devil - and so hot
also
some guy keeps getting into accidents - falls off cliff while
bicycling - falls in hole while jogging - johnny suggests he take up
gardening - Roy just GLARES at Johnny - later guy digs hole in his
basement and nearly drowns from water leak
funny stuff
==========
also back then - seems the engine just had 1 portable with extendable
metal antenna - and 1 mobile radio

wildfire threat still high in western USA
Wildfire threats have increased as the Western heat wave continues to
dry out fuels. On September 6, the National Interagency Fire Center
increased its fire preparedness level to 4 out of 5 – only the second
time the organization has increased to a Level 4 in the month of
September – as large fires increased competition for wildland
firefighting resources.

etc
