Annapolis, Anne Arundel, and Calvert (and later Queen Anne) units running a 4th alarm dwelling fire in Shore Drive in Arundel on the Bay (Annapolis, Anne Arundel County).
BC-35 arrived found dwelling 50% involved with serious exposure problems - immediately requested 2nd alarm and then third alarm.
BC-35 eventually had to abandon his command post and unit.... advised they would probably lose hist unit and Engine 36.
Wires down in the street due to the fire and fire extended to multiple units. Propane tanks venting causing concerns for explosion.
Water supply problems - now have 4th alarm, 3 fireboats, and 2 additional medic units enroute (update: ended up with only Fireboat 41).
AACoFD Dep Ch 1 now in command - additional dwellings involved.
Now dispatching a fireboat from Queen Anne County and also from Calvert County.
Numerous Eastern Shore and Calvert County Units transferring in - just heard Talbot County Tanker 53 (Cordova?) transferring to Herald Harbor (Crownsville)!!!!!!!
0043 update: requesting 5th alarm (non-emergency) to assist with mop-up. Earlier status suggesting at least two exposure (neighboring) dwellings are a total loss - still suppressing fire in the original dwelling
Talbot County Tankers assigned to filled West Annapolis and Shady Side stations - PG Engine 10 (Laurel) sent to Station 35 (Forest Drive).
