per the radio traffic
at approx the same time that LAFD dispatched the call - Santa Monica
Eng 4 was sent to a smoke check next to their station - maybe at the
hospital that is next door - within 3 minutes Eng 4 reported they
could see the smoke and that it was in Pacific Palisades - they
returned to their station at that point - the dispatcher said that
they had just received 2 more 911 calls about the fire
looking at the map - the Santa Monica E4 station is approx 3.5 air
miles from the fire
lets see if we can figure out what the closest stations to the fire were -
la city sta 23 to fire - 3 miles - 10 minutes - per google maps directions
la city fd sta 69 to fire - 3 miles - 12 minutes
la county sta 69 - 9 miles - 21 minutes
la county sta 70 - approx 8 miles - maybe 18 minutes - google maps
wont spit out any good numbers - is PCH blocked along the route
somewhere?
santa monica sta 2 - 9 miles - 25 minutes
the location that the fire started was far from any fire stations -
but ISO probably didnt care since the distance was only 3 miles - big
mistake - we have talked about this before
