Cmon FIRIS!!! Where are you now? Just kidding.
It would be beneficial to get good acres.

Resources from Solano County are now responding. Immediate need.
Only single aircraft and busy to the max now.
They should get Intel12 out of North Ops/McCullen
Where are they stagging? and where is the CP? Dry Creek Rd has a lot of vineyards that should slow the fire some. From what I saw of the map on Watch Duty the fire was still up in the hills west of Healdsburg and South West of Dry Creek Rd. Damn thing seems to be Bi-Polar the way it gets angry, then calms down, then makes another run… There is a creek that runs N-S between the Wallbridge burn scar and Dry creek that looks like it was in part used for the Wallbridge line. I suspect it is beyond that point now, be nice to know.
Enroute to the SHU-Hidden fire
They had some staging up by the dam. All the structure protection resources were going to Yoakum Bridge and West Dry Creek.
They had a good sized spot on the right flank burning off to the west.

Wallbridge dozer lines show up well on the aerial.
I’ve been working mapping fuels in the 2017 Tubbs Fire scar near Mark West Springs. Areas that burned hot there have 12’ tall bay and madrone sprouts, and thick ceanothus, but little in the way of dead fuels or grass in the understory. Live fuel moistures are still up in the brush/sprouts, I’d guess this fire probably won’t push very hard on the flanks, and mainly run with topo and winds.
#PointFire UPDATE: The fire is approximately 900 acres and remains 15% contained. We do have confirmed reports of structures destroyed and are working through damage inspections on the structure type and number. The fire has pushed down south towards Mountain View Ranch Rd.
Crews are hopeful the threat to structures along the Upper Dry Creek Valley will diminish at sundown. Firefighters on the ground with help from fixed wing assets have focused on reinforcing the right flank to the west.
Do you have anything with more up to date acreage? I’m hearing that the fire has made a run up Bradford Mtn and is impacting structures on Mountain View Ranch Rd.
Thank you for your work keeping us informed.
I read that the rh is 47 which tracks with what you’re saying.
Do you happen to have a link to the FIRIS map that gets updated?
This tutorial is specific to ATAK, but I use the KML network link from it in Google Earth Pro - look under the >Add>Network Link menu in Google Earth Pro and paste the URL from the tutorial into the [LINK] menu.
Thanks! Good to know.
