Type 3 engine and water tender requests going UTF.
1 type 3 responding once additional firefighter shows up and sounds like they got a water tender.

The fire is heading for highway 1.

Looks offshore to variable for next 10 hrs. Going west which is good for most part. Just hope homes are not in path. Be safe

Some forecast thoughts regarding the Colorado Fire. The strongest offshore (northeast) winds have peaked and expected to ease after midnight through sunrise. Humidity should trend higher by 4-6 am. Need to be on the watchout for some light southerly winds early Saturday morning

@1432 I would guess that FIRIS will take a pass at it this morning or maybe Courtney or probably both for some more refined maps. The Fireguard data is from a satellite based sensor so its geospatial resolution is not as tight as we would get off an aircraft.
