Happy Wednesday evening! šŸŒˆ Todayā€™s rain was a welcome sight, and this rainbow over the station was a beautiful way to cap the day.

With the rain comes a reminder: never drive into flooded roadways. You canā€™t tell how deep the water is or whether the road beneath it is damaged.

šŸš— If you encounter water covering the road, turn around and choose another route. Never drive around barricades.

Turn Around, Donā€™t Drown!

ā˜•šŸš’ Coffee With the Fire Chief | Episode 7!

In this episode, Fire Chief Richard Kelley sits down with his pastor, Pastor Ronnie Brumley of NW OKC Life.Church, for a conversation that takes them a little higher than usual!

Tune in as we get to know Pastor Ronnie and learn more about the important work of our firefighters including a closer look at our rescue ladder. Pastor Ronnie even gets a great view of Oklahoma City as he takes a ride high above the city on Ladder 30ā€™s aerial platform! šŸš’šŸ™ļø

Itā€™s another great conversation, a little education and a whole new perspective from the top!

To the Residents of Oklahoma City,

As I close my career as the 21st Fire Chief of the Oklahoma City Fire Department, I want to thank you for the privilege of serving you. It has been the honor of a lifetime, and I am deeply grateful for the trust and support you have given me and our department.

Together, we have accomplished many positive things that have strengthened our Fire Department and improved our ability to serve this community. Those accomplishments would not have been possible without your continued support of public safety.

Your Fire Department is filled with outstanding uniformed personnel and professional staff who show up every day ready to work, dedicated to service, and committed to meeting your needs at the highest level. We serve with honor, pride, and dedication because we know our residents deserve the best, and we are committed to giving you our best every day.

I have loved serving the people of this community. As I retire, I leave with tremendous pride in our department and excitement for the future of our great city. Please continue to support Chief Kiel and the men and women of the Oklahoma City Fire Department as they build on our progress and carry our mission forward.

Thank you for allowing me to be part of your lives and for always standing behind those who serve you. It has been a privilege to help ā€œMeet the Needā€.

With gratitude and respect,

Richard A. Kelley
21st Fire Chief

OK-TF1 Deployed to New Mexico

Two Oklahoma Task Force 1 Type 3 swiftwater rescue teams, one from Oklahoma City and one from Tulsa, left yesterday morning to assist with flood response in New Mexico.

Our crews brought boats and equipment to support search and rescue operations in communities affected by flooding. Please keep the people of New Mexico and our deployed members in your thoughts.

If you encounter a flooded road, turn around, donā€™t drown.

Today, the Oklahoma City Fire Department gathered at Fire Administration for our annual Fallen Firefighters & Retiree Memorial Ceremony.
Each year, we come together to remember the line-of-duty deaths and retired members who passed away over the past year. It is a time to honor their service, remember their sacrifices, and recognize the lasting impact they made on the Oklahoma City Fire Department and the communities they served.
Most importantly, we are grateful for the families who joined us today to honor their loved ones. Your presence means so much to the OKC Fire family, and we are honored to stand beside you as we remember those who came before us.
We remember. We honor. We never forget.
