Fire on Sleepers Island

I have been listening to the scanner for the last 15 minutes or so, and the was a call in to Alton for a fire on Sleepers. Alton Fire boat not in water. Gilford boat has been dispatched, and marine patrol is launching a boat and a crew. Alton staging at Rattlesnake landing. Alton chief can see smoke. NHEC is going to be shutting power down to Sleepers.

With this wind and the tough chore of getting sufficient manpower out there could get interesting.

Gilford boat just reported outside fire from a downed power line.

Operations are switching to a channel I do not have on my scanner.
