•USE A TOOL TO FEEL THE ADJOINING SURFACE WITHOUT STEPPING OVER THE PARAPET WALL 5.2.3 Before walking or moving on a roof when visibility is poor, or a heavy smoke condition exists, firefighters should crouch to a kneeling position. Members should probe the roof surface by either swinging a tool or leg in the direction of movement. This is done to note the stability of the roof surface and to determine the presence of holes, shafts and other unobstructed openings. Members operating on the roof should not step over a parapet or wall without first feeling the adjoining surface with a tool. When momentarily blinded by smoke or darkness, and there is no immediate danger to the firefighter, it may be best for the member to remain in place until visibility is restored.

However, high temperatures even only at the ceiling level or a crackling sound heard within the apartment or a fiery glow seen through the smoke are all indications of fire extension and justify calling for a hand line.
