CLIFF RESCUE

At approximately 1300 hours today, San Francisco Fire Department responded to Fort Funston for a report of a dog that had gone over the cliff, with the dog's human companion following after it.

On arrival, crews confirmed one dog and one adult on the cliff side, in the shallower section of the cliffs just north of the hang glider deck.

While crews were setting up a rope rescue system, the human companion was able to make their way down to the beach below, though the route was dangerous. Neither the human companion nor the dog was injured.

Both the human companion and the dog were evaluated and found to be OK. The incident is now closed.

UPDATE:
100 block of Fell Street battery fire.

The fire was a lithium-ion battery fire confined to one room. Like other lithium-ion battery fires, it produced smoke. Several residents went to balconies, windows, and fire escapes to wait for help.

All of them either sheltered in place or were assisted by firefighters and police officers. No formal rescues were needed.

Due to in part to a quick response by SFFD and fire sprinklers this fire was contained quickly.

As of this post, no injuries or displacements have been reported.

A Kelvin Wave is a slow-moving ocean wave beneath the surface that can influence El Niño weather patterns and increase coastal risks along California’s shoreline.

🌊 Ocean Conditions: Can intensify ocean conditions and contribute to coastal impacts.

⚠️ Coastal Hazards: May increase risks along California’s coastline.

📢 Stay Informed: Follow guidance and warnings from local authorities when coastal hazards are expected.

Know the risks and take coastal safety warnings seriously. Visit https://t.co/2ksOjttyE6 to sign up for alerts and find more El Niño safety information.

Kids are most at risk right as they step on and off the bus. Give them the time and space to do it safely. 🚌
