Winds on the east side of the fire are blowing from the east back into the main fire. Pretty visible on the live shot and the cams. Might slow down the forward progress temporarily

Looking at the various Cams it looks like the fire is starting to wake up and build a few columns. The weather today should be very similar to yesterday. Watch for those wind shifts. The fire activity is increasing south of Clinton Kieth Rd.

The fire has chewed through the retardant and is beginning to spot. It is that time of day with open line. Many T-Storm cells building again all over So Cal.
The head of the fire on the NE side is now well established with heavy fire behavior.

Multiple spot fires taking off with erratic fire behavior. Units are pulling back in some areas to come up with a game plan. Branch II pulling crews back until additional resources arrive. It sounds like its setting up to be a long afternoon. The last transmission stated that the spots are too far out ahead to catch without air support.

Units are defending Murrieta fire station off of Vineyard Pkwy. Fire is right behind it. It also looks like the fire has developed 3 heads. GOES Satellite is showing a large heat signature now.
The fire has a nice ice cap on it.
