Today, the Fall ’26 Day Class got close and personal with fire development. Students witnessed the fire’s progression from beginning to end, gaining firsthand insight into the stages of fire development and the changing conditions firefighters may encounter.

Instructor Dunn narrated the evolution throughout the event, helping students connect what they observed to fire behavior principles. His instruction also emphasized the potential consequences of improper extinguishment techniques and the importance of understanding how fire conditions can rapidly change.
