Airs clearing up and tankers are inbound.
AA reports several spots over the dozer lines left flank to shoulder and head.
ADD Near realtime (it says) fire map from NASA:
Really have to zoom in to see topo details. Maybe play with the menu layers.
This mapping program has acreage around 11k. I like Caltopo better.
As far as Metcalf gap RAWS, there was talk on command and I search the map and saw it was close but, my error on direction from the origin. It’s showing 100 air temp and 111 fuel temp and 3% 10hr fuel stick at 11am. It’s still a good measure of weather.

IC says the fire has begun spotting again, heading for the Road 600 area as it aligns with the slope and wind. An additional Strike Team has been requested for structure defense in that area.

Wind has shifted back out of the northwest, deadwood camera is smoked out and it’s just a helicopter show right now.

Is it still pretty active? Very tough to see on the smoked out cameras.

Smoke is clearing some and visibility is improving. AA is considering trying to work some Tankers back in if visibility holds.
