Working Structure Fire With Explosion, 113 Cederwood Blvd

[sharppointy1]

OK, dumb bunny question here. Is the dip in the roof seen when the video starts and later the location of the explosion, caused by the fire? I assume it is, but we all know what assume means...

The ariel ladder looked awfully close to the wires, and it was amazing to see how much big water the fire sucked up and kept burning.

Good job by the FF's, and excellent video. Thanks for posting it!

@CuseRecorder haha sounded like a normal fire i guess you could say

flashover is when the fire becomes so hot that the heated gases or smoke and room contents ignite and the whole room becomes fully engulfed in flames, usually right around 1200 degrees is when the gases ignite and then the room shoots from 1200 degrees to about 2500 degrees. nothing survives.
