4th Alarm House Fire (Reading,IL Fire Dist-Lasalle County)

[Prazjum]

its 4th alarm because of tankers right?

[morese14]

Due to the rural location and time of day, additional units were requested for man power, and to be on scene if the fire 'broke out'.

Nice video. My guess on the 4th alarm is that they were having trouble getting manpower from the volly departments, thus to get the needed manpower for a 1st alarm, they needed a 4th...

I'm guessing they upgraded it to a 4th alarm because of the constant need for the tanker shuttle. Yes, no...maybe so?

i bet that went to 4 alarms because of the close exposers

[MIoldtimer]

4 alarms.....Well, if you count the requests for water and manpower, most fires around here would be 3 or 4 alarms all the time. We have to take the water TO the fire....lol.... That blew the minds of a couple guys at CFD 1`s when I was there. They didn`t understand the concept of NO plugs....lol....

i would have thought a 4th alarm would be the whole house fully involved. great video though. 5/5
