First half of this video shows how the heavier fuels on northern slopes still arenāt at the critical phase yet. Crowing fire but not maximum ERC values so no explosive fire behavior in bulky fuels even at low elevations. If this was 7-10 days later it could have been well past 79 to the east.

You were right about it being a day fire. That is the history. I do agree that there is more fuel and it was so far interior of a area couldnāt get units to the head with the recovery so low it burned active that night so it just extended little longer and that happens too

I figured as much. Growing up in this area, I got very familiar with the kind of wildfires that would become bangers for a few hours, torch thousands of acres and ulimately be out the next day anyway.
The 1,000+ acre Gilman Fire of 2011, The 2,000+ acres Highland Fire of 2012, the 5,000+ acre Palmer and Manzanita Fires of 2017. Even the infamous Esperanza Fire couldnāt muster the strength to cross the 79 back in 2006 although that was already after two days of fire activity. Only major fire to ever do so was the Edna Fire way back in the 1990s.
This one was still impressive for following up such an explosive second day-- but itās a relief this fire ended up reenforcing the notion that Highway 79 is a very worthy firebreak from incidents crossing into the San Jacinto mountain range.

The Wolfskill 1996 was an engine stand at Hwy 79 dump road that was mostly successful. A few spot fires but held.

The Esperanza was fired from Hwy 79 on October 28, 2006, with the cessation of the winds, as a containment measure.

The Edna Fire hit Hwy 79 as part of the first burning period on October 5, 1998. It was a freight train.
