smoke. Your report sets a huge web of action<br />
in motion. A complete, accurate initial report<br />
helps your firefighters protect you.<br />
Here are the five things we need from you<br />
when you report smoke:<br />
1)STUDY: Watch the<br />
smoke plume for more<br />
than one minute. Study it,<br />
Smoke plumes tend to rise<br />
vertically, and have a grayish,<br />
darker color than water<br />
vapor clouds. They rise continuously<br />
from one ground<br />
location.<br />
2) STAY: where you are!<br />
Offer to give the dispatcher<br />
your name, phone number,<br />
and exact location and please<br />
STAY PUT. Be willing to wait<br />
for an emergency responder<br />
to make contact with you<br />
and see what you are seeing.<br />

Please don’t justdrive away after making your<br />
report. Dozens of firefighters are on their way<br />
to you and they need you to point the smoke<br />
out to them.<br />
3) MONITOR: Continue to watch the<br />
plume while waiting for responders. Make<br />
note of any changes in the plume characteristics.<br />
Is it getting bigger or smaller? Has the<br />
color of the smoke changed? Is it emanating<br />
from the same location, or does it seem<br />
detached and behaving more like a cloud?<br />
4) GUIDE: If your house is difficult to find,<br />
drive out to the entrance of your driveway<br />
and guide the firefighters to your vantage to<br />
look at the smoke. Tell the dispatcher what<br />
kind of car you are in for easy identification.<br />
5) INVESTIGATE: If you smell smoke, go<br />
outside and try to find its origin. Take noteof<br />
the wind direction. Smoke and haze from<br />
distant fires frequently blows into our area.<br />
Distant fire smoke has a different smell than<br />
a fire nearby. Try to remember the difference<br />
between the<br />
strong odor<br />

Distant TTRRRRRRAAAAAAAIILLLL fire<br />
smoke tends<br />
to appear as a haze blanketing the landscape,<br />
or appears as diffused clouds of smog with no<br />
origin from the ground.<br />
The most common misidentification all of<br />
us make in this process is confusing water<br />
vapor (“water dogs”) with smoke. Here are<br />
some helpful hints:<br />
Vapor clouds tend to occur after rainstorms.<br />
They appear suddenly, and rise<br />
quickly from the ground, sometimes in a vertical<br />
column. Very shortly thereafter they will<br />
generally plateau out, and change to a more<br />
horizontal cloud, covering a broad area, with<br />
no central origin.<br />
Water dogs tend to dissipate within five to<br />
ten minutes of occurring. They are generated<br />
by temperature differences between the air<br />
and the ground. They frequently occur in<br />
open fields, over lakes, parking lots, or rock<br />
outcroppings. These places have a higher<br />
ground temperature than the surrounding<br />
air. The moisture in them evaporates and<br />
then condenses to make a cloud in the cooler<br />
air. This process can be accelerated when the<br />
sun comes out suddenly after a rain or particularly<br />
after a hailstorm.<br />
We encourage people to ALWAYS error on<br />
the side of caution. If you think you sense the<br />
real deal, call it in!<br />
