Alert Fire Co. No. 1

1 day ago

The Alert No. 1 volunteers responded to several emergency calls today, during and after Tropical Storm Isaias. The calls included smoke investigations, automatic fire alarms, electric wires and water rescues.

The storm today dumped 5.25” of rain on the Downingtown area and the Brandywine Creek, just south of the borough, reached a flood height of 14’ with a flow of 6000 cf/s. The normal height of the creek is 2’ to 3’!

We would like to thank our volunteers for spending the day, standing by at our firehouse and the Minquas Fire Company No. 2, Downingtown Borough, PA - Municipal Government Public Works and the Downingtown Police Department for their assistance today. ... See MoreSee Less

I’m so sorry for all of you who lost power. Thank you for the photos. To see the flooding in familiar places was disheartening. 🙏

Wow! I feel for everyone who lives in Downingtown! I used to live there and I remember the floods prior to Marsh Creek being built! They were devastating!

It’s been awful. Still without power since 12:45 at home and work. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I had no clue it was that bad. Now I understand all the power outages..

Thanks to all the volunteers and emergency responders!

That's awful.. You're guys be careful.

On valley Creek road yesterday right down the road from harmony hill intersection.

This is our usual here on the North Carolina coast !!

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen it flood like this!

Hope everyone in dtown is ok 🙏🏻

So hard to believe there was nothing here and PA is a mess. Saw some pictures of my cousins daughters in Doyletown. Trees down all over her yard

Brings back memories of Growing up in Downingtown.

No power till Aug 8thso we were told this morning awful😜

THANK YOU 🙏
