• Know before you go! The ground is hot! This is one of our thermal imagers pointing at the sidewalk in front of Station 1! 135*F and in some cases, it’s even hotter! • • The National Institute for Standards and Technology says human skin begins to feel pain at a temperature of 111 degrees (think hot bathwater). At 118 degrees, human skin can sustain first-degree burns; a second-degree burn injury can occur at a temperature of 131 degrees. • • Remember to stay cool, stay hydrated, and be safe! #dcfd2 #douglasfire2 #firemanship @seekthermal
