Also, often when a fire report is called into dispatch, the caller is very vague about the location of the fire, like "I smell smoke in the area between 1st and 8th...or maybe it's Manila and Erie...or the Palisades...". So, FDs will roll a fleet of rigs to search up and down streets looking for it. Most fires, in the early stages of burning, don't have trademark flames and thick black smoke billowing out of the roof, so it can take a while to locate.

Maybe all those nice firefighters and their big trucks turned out in numbers because our homes are all so close together and fire spreads REALLY REALLY fast.......

There was a small fire at a house on 7th Street between Eire and Manila. I couldn't believe the turn out myself. I counted 7 big fire trucks plus all the smaller vehicles. I woke up thinking my whole block was on fire. There must have been close to 40 firemen out there.
From my vantage point directly across the street I couldn't even see flames, but today you can see some damage to the house. It makes me thankful we live so close to the fire house on 8th.

Cops and firetrucks - lots of them - driving around in circles for what seemed like an eternity. Lights spinning, sirens blaring. WHat was going on?
