I just realized if you can’t pull an image from the cam, can you see the image I posted? LOL It shows some haze to a distant ridge, should be Grizzly Ridge, then heavy smoke on north side of image, no significant column that I see.

Takes a minute or two to load the still image; the alertwildfire website just has too much stuff on it…neat when it works though. Thanks.

From: Threat to PG&E power lines may leave Westwood without power for days

WESTWOOD, Calif.- Due to fire conditions that threaten PG&E transmission lines in Hat Creek, Westwood may experience a power outage for the next several days, the Lassen Municipal Utility District said.

LSUD transmission lines between Susanville and Westwood suffered fire damage on Aug. 18. LMUD has provided power to Westwood through Hat Creek since then.

There are repairs being made but if power is shut off to the Hat Creek line there is no way to supply power to Westwood.

Residents should prepare for extended power outages, that while not imminent, are still possible.

Things are really flaring up again southeast of Indian Valley.

I’d guess from this that they are firing around West Prospect lookout and from the road on north side.

Soon this will make a run to the Dixie Valley and Little Valley Area in Lassen County. Curious to see if a southern wind will hit it more. Towards MacArthur.

Here’s an interactive damage map, using drone imagery:

Looks like it did, didn’t it? Looked good until the wind shift turned it around and pushed it through a dozer line? Fortunately that switchback road might have been very helpful.
