Thank you!
Hopefully the easterly winds and down canyon winds help check this up on top of the ridges tonight and on top of Turner if it hits it.
Let me post the link so it is more noticeable there bud.
Latest Cal Fire IR (17:30) shows the slop over Highway 172 (teal outline).
The rest of the firing from this morning looks like it held through the burning period, with a few small exceptions (that could be mapping errors).
It looks like they’ve fired around Morgan summit.

Heard reports it’s skipped over the 36 to the north of Morgan summit
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%.
Angry plume building

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.”
5 Lats and 1 VLAT ordered
TKR15 just left Redding
TKR 210 is coming out of Sac with TKR105 , 41 and 912 on their heels
