Busy last week of 1/14/20-1/22/20

[FDNYSTATENISLAND]

The last week has been very busy in the 5 boroughs with fire duty. Particularly multiple alarms - I counted 11 multiple alarm fires ranging from 2nd-5th alarms in the last week alone. Could be the sudden cold spell we?ve seen here - temperatures not surpassing the low 40s and overnight temperatures of teens-20s.

^^^ As bad as it is so far thankfully the temps have not yet dropped low enough for a long enough period to add frozen hydrants to the problem.
