CA-MMU-PEDRO 2024???

That would run it to Horseshoe Bend Rec Area. Between the Bend where the fires at now there are large areas of oak woodland and grass. Give them some opportunities to fire and cut Dozer line use exsisting two tracks if it gets that far. Gets past that a whole lot of brush. Just looking at the cams it looks like it has lost a little energy compared to a couple hours ago.

Lead plane and all MAFFS are load and hold, Lead will base at Santa Maria. Must be getting high confidence over containment.

The KCRA coverage does not support that. Could it be the smoke hanging over the fire? May not be appropriate for the T1s and VLATs. Lots of open line.

It looks to be running all over the place. Nice column popping up again.

His big plane was on the ground waiting for a lead plane to return, then AA would launch the other. 4 have been diverted to TCU fires.

I’m confused - in the IA thread for the Pedro fire, FIRIS mapped it at 379 acres 4 hours ago.
