A shed fire on East Hebron Lane Tuesday created a large column of smoke visible for several miles. Fortunately, no injuries.

The good news was that this shed was well away from the home and garage, so no danger of fire spread. Storing flammable things like fuel, oil, paint thinners, propane tanks and lawn chemicals away from main houses/garages is an excellent measure of safety.

Other helpful thoughts are to blow off grass clippings from mowers, letting mowers and anything else that gets hot during use to cool off outside before they are put away. Be sure containers for chemicals and fuels have tight closing lids to contain vapors. And while we are at it, leave any oily rags outside away from buildings or stored in tightly sealed containers.

Thanks to our friends at Shepherdsville Fire Department for the assist.

We also got to meet a young friend Tuesday afternoon. We do like to get young folks interested in the fire department - recruiting for the future!.

What were the winning weights?

Hook em and reel them in!! #wearyourpfd anytime off dry land. Boat or kayak. Pre fishing or actual compete time. Motor running or not. Anglers do you take your seat belt off at a traffic light? Remembering Peyton Hughes 2024 KY Angler of the year (my daughter's late boyfriend). Skilled angler and swimmer. #pgh21. Last cast Sept 2025 pre fishing college tourney Toledo Bend, Hemphill TX. 💔

Great job to everyone that made this happen. I look forward to this tournament every year.

Last August we assisted with rescuing a stuck horse from a pond. We got an update today from the owner with good news. Her lacerations and bruises have healed and she is back to doing what 13 year old horses do, enjoying grazing in the grass. ... See MoreSee Less

Triple digit heat index is a miserable firefighting condition. Making it worse, firefighters wear heavy personal protective equipment. All this takes a toll on firefighters.

Zoneton was called in to assist Okolona Fire Protection District at a fire at the Grainger facility Wednesday afternoon. The fire was confined to a rooftop solar panel system. Nonetheless, smoke smoke spread to the main building. Also assisting were Fairdale Fire & EMS, Fern Creek Fire Department Pleasure Ridge Park Fire District - Official and Louisville/Jefferson County Emergency Management. Louisville Gas and Electric was a big help with disconnecting/isolating power to make conditions safer for us. Louisville TARC also provided busses to give firefighters a cooler place to recover.

This was a three alarm fire - additional personnel needed because of the heat. (First alarm assignment is 3 Engine Companies and 2 Truck Companies; a second alarm brings in 2 more Engine Companies and 1 Truck Company; and a third alarm is 2 more Engines and 1 Truck. Also the complement of chief officers to fill out an incident command system.) Given the massive size of the complex, "Side by Side" vehicles also respond to help move personnel/equipment from one place to another. Louisville Fire assisted with a large "blower truck" which can move large amounts of smoke.

With the fire being on the roof, great lengths of fire hose had to be stretched up aerial ladders to access the large array of solar panels. Very tedious work.

Im so glad everyone is okay!! Any update on the firefighter taken to the hospital? Zoneton Fire Protection District ?

I thought a first alarm in Jefferson county was just 5 pumping apparatus with one having an aerial device

Thank you all for the quick response and for keeping all our employees safe! Yes, we have damage but, had you not responded so quickly it could have been a lot worse. We appreciate all you did especially in that heat on our roof, I know first hand how hot it can get up there and then also dealing with the glare from the sun when it hits our roof.

Always training. Today, members of Zoneton Fire Protection District got out and practiced supplying a master stream. All before it got too hot!

The new guy got some nozzle time at the top of the aerial as well…
