The marine layer is starting to thin out. With the upper level low overhead will have to monitor convective development as it was very active to the north yesterday.

Was there in 93 on the Green Meadow fire, it ran hard on a Santa Ana, almost to Peperdine, and then turned around on a “Catalina Eddy” and ran hard back in the direction it is going now. Very steep, I do not think it has burned since 93???

Looks like the most active fire is because it is now in Quarry canyon mid right flank, running up the slope to the east.

I always thought the green meadow/steckle started off the conejo grade and burned west. The Malibu fire a week later I thought burned this footprint towards Pepperdine? My memory fades

Flew AA relief on (Green Meadows) when onshore winds took over. Very rugged terrain and nasty turbulence for fixed wing ops. Grounded the air tankers, kept chasing main fire with the rotors.

Ops is ordering an AA again to try to get some retardant in on Division Alpha before sunset.
Helco thinks they will have a better chance this time.
Looking at the live video, seems that it is a flanking fire on both sides. Handlines are going in, and there appears to be dozer contingency line down the flanks.
