Hopefully not but the camera time-lapse says it got dicey.

Did a quick livestream on the fire this morning and shared new imagery of the fire effects thru noon yesterday.

Trying to keep images small for bandwidth reasons. The fire is very active this morning (much more so than at the same time yesterday).

Checking the Lassen Lodge RAWS (Mineral area), pretty much all night long it was recording temperatures hovering around 72 degrees and rH hovering around 10%.

Was it a firing operation around the Morgan Summit cam, or the fire front going through?

Looks like they fired it last night but was understory burn, still pushing fire up the hill

The firing op was along 172 and doglegged down the east and west sides of the Mill Creek canyon. Morgan Summit burned due to slopover near or in Jones Valley. VLATS tried to contain it but lost daylight. The words of my son, who was on 172 when it slopped over: “The place exploded.”

My son was on the Dixie on a falling mod with dozers around and they got blocked off one day and ran out the next - several weeks into the incident! This thing will stop when IT wants to.

Lost 2 Type 1 Air Tankers to the Crozier Fire.
That can’t help anything.

Here’s a corrected image from firms showing a firing operation along highway 36 down to 172 on both flanks. See my earlier post of the caltopo image.

Please don’t use the words “lost” and “tanker/s” in the same sentence. It freaks some of us out. Maybe say “reassigned” or “sent”? Thank you - my spider senses have calmed down now……

Oh, the updated map shows firing ops on 36 and the slopover on 172.
