Coming around here to near Bayshore.
00:04
Near Bayshore, I want you to stage up by this big two-story house.
00:09
It's the last one on the end, and this is where all the giant embers are falling right now.
00:17
As you see.
00:20
Hey, 23, we also have keys to the gates out there at the Holden's house.
00:26
They gave Ricky some keys.
00:32
That'll be good, James, if we have to get in there.
00:35
I got a League City brush truck here right now.
00:40
That's right.
00:45
I'll check on.
00:47
That's there.
00:53
50, 50, 50, 502-1.
00:58
Go ahead.
01:01
Back to your north on Ruth, there's a hydrant back in the trees.
01:09
Clear, I think Lick City Boosters filling up there right now.
01:16
Ruth and Patricia.
01:18
Then the other hydrant's going to be out on West Bay Shore, Mary.
01:23
Jimbo.
01:30
Brush command to ladder 48.
01:38
Go ahead.
01:41
Hey, Gary, we just had a pretty good collapse on this side.
01:46
I don't know if it was in the middle or if it was one of the ones on this end.
01:52
It looks like it's on the far end.
01:56
It's on that far end.
02:02
14,
02:05
go ahead, and we're out to JSCR in reference to my call.
02:30
And then print the one knee if you haven't already.
02:33
Okay.
02:39
Thank you.
02:42
(name withheld), you follow Ricky inside.
02:47
He's going to open the gate, yeah,
02:50
and just post up.
02:57
5201 is that La Marque is that you coming up to Bayshore?
03:05
That's clear but we're bar-wired in.
03:11
Okay,
03:12
but you're on the area that I'm worried about for this last big structure at all.
03:17
The embers are coming right down over the top of this house right here to your left.
03:25
That's fair chief.
03:26
We're patrolling this area.
03:29
All right, thank you.
03:30
We're going to put a booster in their backyard.
03:33
43 502.01. You say, oh, me they go inside?
03:43
Yeah, we'll let the booster get in there first,
03:46
and then that way you can get in.
03:52
We've got another partial collapse.
03:57
Heavy smoke, heavy slings coming out the charty side.
04:06
Where's the man to Gary? Y'all shut that ladder truck now?
04:12
All right there's right now?
04:22
Commander booster operation.
04:31
And we're going to have to move this operation over here, so number five is probably going to be a loss, just heads up.
04:39
Yeah, I was just fixing a car again, so it's probably going to be a total loss.
04:47
If you need anything else over there, let me know.
04:50
I don't think I have any more booster truck, but I'll call them.
04:54
Okay, sir, all we're good for right now,
04:56
we've got nothing staging.
05:00
That's great, thank you.
05:06
New City, Bruce, Brewster 2 to Breast Command.
05:11
Breast Command, go ahead.
05:14
Yes, we are all the way in the back of near 5410.
05:21
Asker, are you getting some major dropout over there?
05:29
Yeah, a little bit, but it looks like it's all in that field to our left behind a bar barbed fence.
05:37
Thanks, sir.
05:39
Good mind, brush demand of 50201.
05:44
Enjoy it.
05:47
Are you going to try to go down further down Bayshore to see? It looks like the wind's shifting and it's going to start pushing more out towards that field to the right of the number five.
06:02
Clear, I'm sitting on it right here at near Bayshore, the last structure here.
06:08
Then you got the canal after that,
06:11
and that's why I was worried about the fallout where this house is.
06:14
I seen La Marque booster in the back, but I was going to put one of the League City trucks in here,
06:20
and then we'll watch it further south.
06:30
We got grass fires going on this right side of the building number five on our side.
06:37
That's clear.
06:41
Is this standing on Bush 1?
06:44
Negative standing out 101.
06:46
Okay,
06:48
do you have a brush truck over there or you just have a support vehicle?
06:54
Negative in support.
06:57
That's clear.
06:58
Just make sure you have an escape route if you need to get out if you have to.
07:04
That's clear.
07:06
We've got a fire starting on the other side of the canal as well.
07:12
Really safe.
07:19
I want to boost command.
07:24
Good.
07:26
Okay, if it shifts a little more, there's no structures, it's just fields there.
07:32
I'm staging this Bacliff Engine 23 inside the property where this two-story house is,
07:38
and then I'll leave your two-leek City boosters here free to Rome.
