Henderson Fire of Clark County Nevada 2023 Pierce Velocity 100' Tower just placed in service at ststion 98.
This album is the story of one family’s tragedy in our rural community. Our emergency response network is comprised of neighbors and trained volunteer responders. Everyone is a hero.
The family was settled in for the evening watching TV when they heard a pop and smoke and flames began to rage through the house. They escaped into freezing weather with bare feet and what they had on. This family has lost almost everything except what is most important - themselves and their pets. Purse, wallets, vehicle keys, cell phone, computers, clothes, toys, family photos and treasures were consumed by the flames. Anything the fire missed, the smoke and water damaged.
Emergency equipment and volunteers from our network of local communities arrived in fire engines and personal vehicles within minutes to beat back the fire and keep it from spreading to vehicles and other structures on the property.
While the firefighters battled the fire, neighbors brought comfort, jackets, blankets, shoes, jeans, coffee, water, whatever was needed and took home pets to keep them warm and safe.
Everyone is a hero.
This album only has photos of the drama of the fire. The family’s trauma is private.
House fires can happen to anyone, in any type of home. All it took to ignite this fire (and many others) was an electric pop and a spark from something that should have been safe. They survived because they knew how to get out and did. Give your family the gift of an escape plan and stay alive.

The setting sun is making the smoke a better colour than it actually was.
We were about to leave our friend's 50th wedding anniversary lunch/afternoon when my son rang and said there was a big fire near or maybe even our house, so we headed the 5km home, to find it was nearly 1km past our house.
It was a shed/garage and a house bus, totally destroyed in the blaze.
Local appliances ANZAC 271 and 272 along with Woolson 241 were in attendance but it took a while to get the fire under control and stop it spreading to the very close neighbouring house.

The Château d'Annecy is a restored castle which dominates the old French town of Annecy in the Haute-Savoie département. It was bought by the town, restored and transformed into a museum, le musée-château d'Annecy. The castle is listed as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.
The castle was built between the 12th and 16th centuries. It served as the residence of the Counts of Geneva and the Dukes of Genevois-Nemours. Several times the victim of fires, the castle was abandoned in the 17th century and later repaired to serve as a barracks until 1947. The town of Annecy acquired the castle in 1953, restored it with the help of Monuments historiques and installed a museum there.
Since 1993, the Tower and the Logis Perrière have housed an observatory (l'Observatoire régional des lacs alpins). (Wikipedia)
The young kid doing fire-spinning is the son of the adult fire-spinner. I can't remember the kid's name but he's the Hawaiian state junior champion in fire-spinning and was really good.
Taken for another competition, the theme of which was "hot or cold, or both." I decided to go with both.
