Air Attack 310, Air Tankers 72, 73, Copter 605.
On the Cam it looks like an immediate structure threat.
5+ acres, potential for 1,000 acres, structure threat, ten additional engines, and doubled the current aircraft assignment
This area historically supports very active fires with the afternoon winds.
15 acres W/ immediate structure threat.
Such a nasty area up there
Limited extended access
Per AA, 75 acres and running, potential to be extended incident.
10 additional engines and 2 Tankers requested.
Last major fire was the Tenaja fire in 2019
Aircraft assigned: A310, T71, T72, T73, T122, T104, T210, H605, H611, 9CU, 9PJ
(1) lead plane and (2) additional LAT’s on order.
Per Ic - 125 acres MROS
Per IC - we’ll have a structure issue at the head of the fire in about 30 to 45 minutes
I think that afternoon/evening wind push is starting up there.
Red Mountain North playback shows the increase in wind and spread well
That is my old battalion. Many nightmare thinking about fires in that area. Many long hard days and weeks fighting fires that brush and grass. The on shore winds will be pushing soon and cause a whole lot work.
IC: Requesting (10) additional engines any type and (2) water tenders
IC requested 10 additional engines closest any type plus 5 type 3 engines and 2 WT.
AA asking for an ETA on the lead and inquiring about more Type 1’s helicopters. His type 1 request was filled with a type 2.
