UPDATE: Shortly before midnight, he tweeted: There are an awful lot of homes around here without heat, hot water and electricity."

One of the firefighters who mans Ladder 29 out of Blue Hill Avenue has been tweeting today in between runs - and it's a good thing it doesn't take long to tweet because he reports the company has been all out, responding to 20 calls as of around 9 p.m., including:

Ceiling/roof collapse, basement fire, person stranded in 4 feet of water in their car, basements 6 feet under,, etc etc

All I know is, if global warming means Boston is going to get 600 inches of rain between March and June every year, like Billy Joel, IIIIIII'm movin out.
