If you look at the IAP orientation map the “planned fireline” is a very big box, probably looking at 2x the current acreage

Wrong truck trail… If division f blows out it will make a hard run towards Sawmill Leibre Truck Trail. If that doesn’t hold they will have to try and hold it at the Old Ridge Route and Pine Canyon. A lot of ground!

My error. You are correct. It is Sawmill. (incorrect post edited). Thank you.

Seems to be blowing west to NW today. Sure hope the burning ops held.

Actually relooking at the camera it shows to burning towards the ridge burn scar from a couple weeks ago possibly a ridge over from it going into that near Hwy 138
It is still about 6-7 miles east of there.
Didn’t add a lot of acreage. 18,526.
This mornings IR Topo: oops, to large. But that’s how I found the acreage.
Todays Day Shift IAP: That’s too large too.
Sorry, I tried. All the products are over 8mb. Not posting to a cloud server.

Is this happening now?
This was the big blowup a couple days ago.

Sundowner winds are surfacing over the fire. NW winds 15-20 with gusts to 30 MPH. These winds are expected the next few nights.
Moving crews on DIV G and DIV F into safe locations.
