Was able to get some of the structure protection talk in Lassen County up on Lassen County Fire - Special. USFS R5 Proj
Got our butts kicked today on clairmont. Made a good run and nothing was stopping it
Looks like it bumped the Minerva burn. What’s the probability of it hooking around to the East?
I think the Claremont is a separate fire, unrelated to the North Complex. It’s a fire south/south west of Quincy.
Edit (I’d start at least a Q&A thread, if I knew how…) - figured it out, but I see Claremont IS in the PNF-Lighting thread.
Per SO houses are currently engulfed on Childrens Road.
View off 395 shows it chugging hard coming in south of Susanville. Just cleared the dump. Impressive column leaning hard over 395
The Bear, Claremont and Sheep are apparently the complex. The sheep is too far away from the other too for that to make sense to me.
Complexes are often split along administrative boundaries, and will include all fires in an entire National Forest or Ranger Unit.
Not the best but probably all they could get right now. Feds are stretched thin as is Cal Fire.
Sure. Still adds to confusion sometimes.
The Plumas News covers that area. And the PNF is fairly consistent using FB for fire updates.
I meant real time scanner traffic…
AND East Quincy is evacuating right now
All the starts in the North Complex.117644600_3274323842628549_7246740885593811695_o|375x500, 100%
Wow, what an annoying high amount of lightning starts. All that’s been found so far, there’s undoubtly a couple that will probably smolder undetected for long periods-- and hopefully just die out but who knows.
Latest VIIRS from 9:45 PM shows active points within the areas of Old Archery Rd, Childrens Rd, Old Scotts Logging Rd, Oak Mt Dr, Amesbury Dr, Morning Star Dr, and Jura Dr.
Looks like the East Quincy cam is getting hit or about to be… http://www.alertwildfire.org/shastamodoc/index.html?camera=Axis-EastQuincy&v=81e004f
They ordered a whole bunch of local engines from plumas county for structure protection in Quincy and released them after 4 hours.
