does anybody know what makes it a 6 alarm fire?
Alarms depend on location and occupancy type, but basically it is like this:
1st alarm: 3 pumps,1 ladder, chief, rescue, chief as safety officer
2nd alarm:2 or 3 pumps,1 ladder, chief, rescue, supply shop
3rd alarm: 2 pumps, 1 ladder, deputy chief,
4th alarm: 1 or 2 pumps, 1 ladder
5th through infinity alarm: same as 4th

I work downtown about a block off Canal and from the fire, and our building is filled with smoke.

New Orleans' fire chief said a massive six-alarm fire that broke out on Canal Street early Wednesday morning has spread to a second building and that the four-story structure initially found burning is in danger of collapsing.

So 6 alarm fires get less equipment? So they aren't as bad as 1 alarm?

I'm guessing that each alarm adds that equipment.

Did we figure out if it's Super Saint's fault or not?

The principal danger for revelers would be the collapse of the facade of the four-story building at 1018 Canal Street. The building was reported to have caught fire at 3:23 a.m. and forced a response from 31 units and 91 firefighters from the New Orleans Fire Department.
Speculation is that Mardi Gras parade routes will be altered

It's slowing down. When I showed up they had 5 hoses going. Only 2 now.

A developer in New Orleans would never do something so underhanded. I don't believe it.
