Ryan Hill is stoked to be in San Diego! He’s coming to the area from Sacramento. So, he only had to shuffle his area codes around a little bit, trading the 916 for the 619.
SAN DIEGO - The fire in Del Mar was San Diego Fire-Rescue's first time using something called the Genasys Protect App in a live situation.
“This app is definitely one step forward in getting real-time information to the public,” Cpt. Eric Faulk of the San Diego Fire Recuse Department said.“What we would do on our end is click on the zone, and then it’s very simple. We go over to this update status; we click on the update the status. And now with this zone that’s highlighted, We can let the people know either it’s normal, advisory, evacuation warning, evacuation order,” Faulk said.
“And we see where’s the fire right now, where’s the hazard going, what can we do to let these residents know that in a timely manner of hey we have two hours or we need to evacuate right now,” Faulk said“I spoke with one of the captains yesterday that was on the fire. He said it worked very well. They were in unified command with San Diego Police and they started drawing out on a big map exactly what regions.
