Montgomery County Fire Response to Waterflow and Fire Alarms (Radio traffic) - 2/17/2021
On Wednesday afternoon all full-service and volunteer fire departments in Montgomery County were overwhelmed with hundreds of waterflow and fire alarms, in addition to the 911 calls from residents reporting pipe bursts inside of their residences. Homeowners who did not know how to turn off their water, or did not have the tools to do so, instinctively called 911 for assistance. Units went straight from one call to the next, never returning to the station until call volume decreased. Over the 4 day period of winter weather there were 1,600 calls and 58 reported structure fires throughout the county. At times MCHD was at level 0, meaning there were times during the week where no ambulances were available due to call volume. This video has a roughly hour-long sample of radio communications between dispatch and public safety on Wednesday 2/17. Take a listen to fully see the extent of plumbing failure throughout the county.
