Going to be tight in quarters with 11 members in that little firehouse.

I'd imagine that in So Fla where municipalities are breaking off that it is causing the larger original department to have to reduce staffing. Are the smaller newly formed municipalities absorbing staff that already in place?

Is the normal truck order 176, 112, 124, 111, 120?

Did assignments change with 287 in temp quarters? This may be their first due box now. Straight run up 57 only about 4 or 5 blocks.

Did WHB vollies respond?

218's home box?

XR2 not on the map

Haven't been in the area in a long time. Are they making progress on Grand Ave?

Just from looking at Yantic's Facebook page they seemed to have been a thriving volunteer department, answering over 700 calls last year. There must be more to this story.

Surprised 135 isn't ahead of 108. Seems like a closer and easier run.

So the RRV's were to be going on cold exposure runs because EMS is in backlog? I don't imagine they can transport in the RRV and I'm assuming the members aren't putting homeless in the RRV to keep warm awaiting EMS. So what is their role? Hold the cold person's hand while they colder awaiting EMS?

Does D8 do more runs in SI or in Brooklyn?

I know we're talking engine and squad run to work numbers but L133 has to have the best run to work outside of SOC. 1886 runs and 130 10-75's or better.

E212 first due box

With 287/136 in the temp quarters I'm surprised 292 doesn't get into this box ahead of them. That's an easy run for 292 on QB to 45 Ave and a quick left onto 79 St.
