Fireground AudioVideos

Radio traffic plus video & pictures from fire outbreak in Baltimore

Previous coverage

Alertpage (alertpage) has gathered audio from Broadcastify from Sunday’s series of fires pushed by high winds in Baltimore, Maryland. It started with a warehouse fire that spread embers sparking at least a half dozen additional fires.

The audio on this video has been edited to remove all “silent air” resulting in one hour of radio traffic being condensed down to less than 30 minutes. You are hearing Fireground 1 only. Firegrounds 2, 3, 4, and EMS Channel 2 were also being used for operations on E. Lanvale, E. North Ave, Bond St. and other fire locations created by the same incident.

In addition, here are links to still pictures of some of the fires courtesy of Stanley Jaworski and Nick Eid:

Kirk Ave. & Curtain Ave. (and here)

1500 block E. North Ave.

1811-13 block N. Bond St.

1824 N. Bond St.

1600 block E. Lanvale St.

1700 block Preston St.

Here are the rundowns from the Eastside fire-fest on Sunday (courtesy of Paul Novak Jr.). Some were hard to compile because units went from fire to fire and weren’t put on the CAD case until later on in the blaze. So here is the list the best we could figure it out :
