LMU has a LNU T3 ST prepositioned in anticipation of this event.
16:15 AA reported 4 fires visible. Largest is 5-6 acres with fire activity slowing down should be able to wrap it with one more round of tankers. The other fires are 1/2 acre or less with slow spread.
They’re really hitting it with tankers. T133 just arrived here this morning.
Well that aged poorly. Huge shift. Diverting aircraft off the Shelly now.
