Moderate smoke turned to heavy smoke and Firefighters on the roof had heavy fire showing from their cut holes. The fire involved a textile warehouse adjacent to two other commercial buildings. Firefighters then went defensive, attacking the flames with a “wagon battery,” several “ladder pipes” and a plethora of hose lines from the street and nearby rooftops. In the pouring rain the flames shot 50 to 100 feet into the air. Over 100 Firefighters had the main bulk of fire was knocked down in approximately one and a half hour.

    Not too many noticed the palm trees glowing and burning from the inside out across the freeway while the trees right next to the building were fine. Plasma fire or geoengineered fire. Electomagnetic fire like lightning. 5000 to 6000 degrees instead of 1800 in a normal type fire. All the heavy winds associated with these fires are called solar winds or ionic winds. Not too much info about this new phenomena the past years because THEY have now weaponized it to cull the herd and displace and cause hell and utter chaos

    I don't claim any expertise or experience in firefighting but as the flames were through the roof of the structure and it was fully involved couldn't a few aerials have really helped in pouring large volumes of water on this inferno? Especially since it seems to be self ventilating? Again no expert and don't know all the incident details I'm actually wondering if those apparatus would make a difference.

    Rosa Fonseca, 90. I couldn't find any information about who she was that wasn't locked behind a paywall. Diego Alberto, 23. Tragically, he's the brother the man at 8:45 is calling for. He'd celebrated his 23rd birthday the Monday before the fire. He was roommates with his brother and his cousin. I searched up the name of Diego Alberto's brother and discovered that a California Highway Patrol officer of the same name was recently declared a hero for pulling an injured man from a burning vehicle in November of 2022. There's a very real possibility that this is a different person, but. The idea of this being the same guy almost a decade later is admittedly compelling. Either way, I hope he's doing alright, wherever he is.

When Fire Engines were pulled by running men, they challenged the horse. When Fire Engines were pulled by horse, they challenged the steam or gasoline engine. Now the challenge is the electric battery engine. Efficient ? reliable ? safe ? cost effective ? That is the question. 🚒🚑

    • @lafd
      @lafd Рік тому

      All LAFD safety attire has a effective life span. As is the norm, when a current supply of expendable safety gear (in this case helmets - of which we typically buy thousands), is exhausted, we open a highly competitive bidding process to replace them. In early 2022, amidst a new and necessary replacement cycle, the LAFD requested bids, and in response to such selected and procured the MSA Cairns Model 1044 as our agency's Structural Firefighting Helmet. That helmet is now initially issued to all new LAFD firefighters, and serves as the mandatory replacement for all currently in-service structural firefighting helmets, all of which have come to the end of their approved service life. The replacement process among our ~3500 uniformed employees has been active for some time, and is nearly complete. At that point in time, at least until our next procurement cycle, the MSA Cairns Model 1044 will be the single specified structural firefighting helmet issued to and expected to be used by all uniformed members of our agency. We hope this information helps. Respectfully Yours in Safety and Service, Brian Humphrey Firefighter/Specialist Public Service Officer Los Angeles Fire Department
