Just spotted this chopper heading back to the fight after a pit stop at Nervino. I feel like saying something out of a WWII news reel like: go get 'em.
Looks like the forecasted return to winds is happening. Winds are picking up. About 15mph now.

Before we make this too complicated, a big part of the explanation is timing.
7/22/21 IR Map.
On 7/21, the big new run in Rush Creek and the Fly Fire hadn’t even started, but we were already firing along Highway 89 and building the contingency lines that ended up being the controlled edge of the main (western) part of the fire.
7/23/21 IR Map
The Fly Fire and Rush Creek Fire took off on 7/22. We didn’t start to go direct on these fires until conditions moderated early last week. So a big part of the east zone really could be considered their own new fires which started days after the west zone was already going.
7/27/21 IR Map
We went indirect on Mt. Hough Road and at the base of Mt. Hough on Arlington Road. The fire took some time to get there, which helps explain these lines not turning black sooner.

They are putting alot of resources in place to catch anything that cross’s the line. There was a bit of concern about from Dennis burns this morning.

Can anyone confirm what Division has the spot fires? L, J, O, or R? Or all four?

Well across the road in two spots in Div Lima. Don’t know about elsewhere. See Jim Higgins’ FLIR image in Dixie Q&D. This is a really big deal.
