CA-FKU-Mineral?

South ops not much going on down here.

Wondering how many crew orders they’re putting in and what crews are available down south!

Not much going on down here

Looks like a new start or real long range spot with AA and two helicopters on it I think.

What’s the approx distance between the two?

Maybe 2 miles. From what I can tell its near Los Gatos creek road.

Unless you heard radio traffic stating a new start, that is the heel of the fire. they just moved the camera a little south.

Update from AA 6,000 acres

Thanks I had to look at the time lapse to see it, the heal is at Parsons road and the helicopters are working it hard.

Any word on resource orders for tomorrow?

So, with regards to resource needs and current pending requests, it is important to keep in mind that now that two distinct milestones have past, unless things go completely sideways and there are limited Immediate Need resources needed, any Planned Need requirements will be coming directly from the IMT 2 Planning Section to SOPS. It would be extremely rare to hear those resource requirements coming over the radio. Further, often those resource requests will be coming out later tonight for ST configured resources for 06:00 report time. With the exception of overhead needs, there will be very few single increment resources ordered. It is possible to see some single increment CWN requests in play but those will be closest resource orders.

It’s been awhile since we’ve seen a major fire with a CF IMT in place so let’s let them do the job that they are extremely good at and recognize there will be other incidents if you don’t get tapped this round.

Checking the FTP site but no IAP unless I’m just missing it?

Will they be using that AT frequency today also?
