Let's hear it for the SFFD

Recipe for disaster: middle of the night, 20 mile-an-hour winds off the ocean, hundred-year-old three-story wooden buildings, and a fire. The result? Only a few minor injuries, a lot of saved pets, and dozens homeless -- but nobody killed. Our fire fighters are amazing. Map of the location.
