The highly anticipated Blue Angels performances during Fleet Week in San Francisco have many scouting locations in the city to get a good view of the action.
There are a few rooftop bars and decks in the city offering unobstructed views of the air show. Businesses and hotels are excited to see many people returning to the city for Fleet Week.
It has become a tradition for San Francisco residents to host rooftop"Angel watch" parties at their homes or apartment complexes, but the fire department is hoping they do that responsibly. "If you're enjoying spirits, alcoholic beverages, we recommend that you don't do that on a rooftop. You don't do that on a balcony. You don't do that on a window will," SFFD Lt. Jonathan Baxter said.
Baxter is urging people to check with building managers and ask how many people can safely be on a rooftop and where, or how much weight balconies can support. The fire department said there is no history of any Fleet Week accidents involving a roof or balcony, but said a safety reminder is never a bad idea.
