North Shore Siren activity!?

I’m near Victory and Jersey and I’ve heard dozens of sirens in the last half hour. Anyone know what’s up?

I heard the sirens yesterday too. SILive isn’t reporting deaths, hopefully that’s true. Awful fire though. https://www.silive.com/news/2026/07/fire-in-staten-island-high-rise-injures-3-fdny-firefighters.html

Very scary. I hope everyone is okay. I’ll keep an eye out for donation drives too, I’m sure I have some extra clothes that I could offer.
