I attended a Still & Box overnight at 2020 W Webster in the Bucktown neighborhood. Companies originally reported fire in the rear of this 1.5 story residence, and were interior making a good push. However, the cold wind soon took hold of the attic space and heavy fire conditions evolved. All companies were pulled out, Tower 21 was moved to Side A, and knocked the fire with their aerial master stream. Companies went back in to mop up.

On Friday, November 25, Chicago had a working fire at 2528 N. Fairfield.  The fire was rather small in terms of the time it took for it to be considered out but I did arrive in time for some interesting overhaul shots.  There were no front stairs and ladders had to be placed at the doors in order to access the front hallways.  The fire appeared to be mostly in the front living room, right at the window but resulted in some hidden fire extending into the wall above the front doors.  Accessing this fire was a little difficult due to its location over the area where the stairs were missing.  Eric Haak
