A map always helps , thank you 
If they can get the dozers in to top of Summit Lake Dr., Angwin, they can anchor in to the new dozer line from the Hennessey and work down that ridge line. If this gets up into Bell Canyon, access is very limited into that area.

They’re getting good use of tankers on the east side of the fire, but it’s hard to imagine them picking up the northwest flank of this today with the current weather.

Here is a fire history map. Blue fires on left are Valley and Butts Fires. Foreground blue is 2017 Tubbs. Purple is this year’s LNU Complex. Recent fire footprints were not a sure bet for slowing wind-driven fires earlier this summer.

NWS SF - 1:30pm
High confidence that offshore winds will kick up again overnight. It is these overnight conditions that will be the most critical for fire weather conditions. Given that the Glass Fire is already underway, the mixing of NE winds back down to the surface along with no overnight recoveries will make this a challenging night for firefighting operations.
