South Metro Unscripted Episode 15

Fall along the Colorado Front Range often yields large wildland fires and prompts Red Flag Warnings. On this episode of South Metro Unscripted Captain Crews describes what a Red Flag Warning is, how SMFR handles fires on high risk days and what apparatus firefighters use to battle the flames.

[@thisisjspence]

I would love to work for South Metro at an interface station. Fantastic department!

[@jasalyndittmar3529]

Favorite episode yet! I’m biased though, I think wild land fire is the area I’d like to specialize in!

[@centralnewyorkresponses7887]

First, nice intro.

[@kingofkings6905]

Are your department's copters (air support) stationed strategically throughout your coverage area for trauma patient transport and fire attack?

[@timschnaidt5071]

little late response but, many of the air support items you see are county-owned and operated I believe.

[@budaroski]

The one for fire attack is owned by Douglas county one of the counties smfr is in. The medical helicopters are airline helicopters that are with each hospital

Man, this dude likes to talk!

[@rickj1983]

He knows his his trade well. That's a good thing too. I feel very confident with SMF being our fire fighters.

[@navblue20]

Pay attention to what the man is saying he actually knows what he's talking about unlike you. And if you live out in that part of the country what he's saying makes all the sense in the world again if you pay attention

[@EviejytttMiddlestetter]

I know that

[@danielheartsill4269]

I will never understand why the public can't learn how to be more careful with fire. Why can't they use common knowledge to know the high fire dangers without being told. People living in high fire danger areas must have their head in the sand most ot the time.

[@sgt.guardsman2221]

I think that is why they DNR in Michigan has "Fire Danger" signs near their Field Offices, to make the public aware. Most people don't understand the idea of low humidity, dry ground for weeks/months and high winds as a problem.

I thought Bill Paxton died.
