CA-KNF-Cherry??

T93 from Chico Air Attack Base just dispatched to the Cherry Fire on the KNF. Any info?

CAD is putting it about here on google. But the action is looking a bit west near Horse Creek, off what Google calls Cherry Maple Road. Where 96 crosses the river there is called Cherry Flat. Unknown what side of the highway this is on.

Both S2’s load and return Siskiyou reload base.

Getting T40 too for a total of 5 tankers.

Is this on the South side of the river? Just issued
Evacuation Warning- Walker Rd west to Bar rd along Hwy 96

Should be recent burn hx on the North side from the ‘14 Beaver, ‘16 Gap and ‘17 Eclipse/Miller fires

Gap fire

Looks like 10-15 acres holding within retardant lines for now. https://twitter.com/CAFireScanner/status/1286055325028634624?s=20

Releasing the tankers, some of them being diverted to a new start. Haven’t heard it dispatched.
