FreeBird Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 tanker 4 now enroute - I think station 4 only had one man on duty today. He was returning to the station in the rescue unit when this call came in. He responded in the engine. Good example of how our stations need to be fully manned so they are prepared and can respond quickly for whatever comes their way. Link to post Share on other sites

MamaJess Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 They must be making progress....?? Smoke seems to be getting less now... Link to post Share on other sites
FreeBird Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 I think the "85% on ground" means it was almost burned down - so I'd expect smoke to be clearing. Are you going over for onsite reporting? Link to post Share on other sites

FreeBird Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 3410 in service didn't find street in Temple either... Link to post Share on other sites
MamaJess Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 3410 in service didn't find street in Temple either... I did, its over near Draketown...what I was seeing must've been a weird low cloud or something. It was out near my moms subdivision....nearish to Pats. If that makes any sense?
