Thread for updates during the storm.

Two evacuation teams working out of Engine 33 or DARS system
 
expecting all reserved rigs to be on duty... and questions about reserved rigs. Are they up for natural disasters and such? and are they mounted with on duty firefighters even with OT during the tour? or are they from all other houses meaning firefighters that aren't in the battalion's command.
 
If and when the reserve rigs go in service it will be with overtime members.
 
Memo did come saying to prepare to Evac 10/10 and 4/15
 
Reserve Engine 500 @ E15
Reserve Engine 507 @ E53
Reserve Ladder 701 @ E91
