Yreka weather station got around 1/5 to 1/4 of rain around midnight last night and storm seemed to be more centered to the west towards the fire so who knows what that got… fingers crossed but who knows.

Last night’s IR has some cloud cover, but new maps are on the-lookout.org.
Anyone informed on tactics in Div Y? Are they going to let it back down to McAdams Creek Road or try to pick it up more direct? Looks like Div Y is Cal Fire DPA?

I’m sorry if this has been asked or answered already, is this a fed or state run fire?

You are correct the incident is Unified. However, it is a Fed incident in that it is a Fed team and a Fed ordering point.

Ton of private resources here in California that would love a call as well. You’d think our phones would be ringing off the hook by now.

ECF28, the federal team’s IAP is just like on a CALFIRE IAP, both 12’s and 24’s assigned to each division, one IAP/day.

Organizationally the McKinney is no different than the Oak only in reverse order. The McKinney started in a Federal Responsibility Area (FRA) and Federal Direct Area (DPA) so it was a Fed team and ordering point. Then it threatened SRA and State DPA so they went into unified command with 2 ICs, the rest of the organization could come from any agency. Those 2 ICs need to play in the sand box well and make mutual decisions.

a quick count shows 40ish S/T orders and multiple dozer, WT, stake sides and Pickup orders pending…looks like they have ordered plenty. Just takes a while to go through NICC/VIPR lists
