This from Steve Redick:

This was about 0200 Saturday morning. A large warehouse stacked floor to ceiling with junky combustibles. The fire was in an outside rubbish/storage area beneath an overhang. For a bit it looked like the fire had gotten a hold in the building. Bar joist truss construction and initial heavy smoke and excessive stock inside made for a defensive operation for most of the fire. The MVU was used to clear the building once the fire was contained. This could have been a real dandy but fortunately everything worked out well.
