Used to live in Gilroy on Godfrey Rd, about 4 houses down from Crews Rd. Hope they catch it soon. It is Oak woodland Just heard the IC say over 100 acres

Over 100 acres per IC

There is a spot fire in heavy oaks about half a mile from the head. This things looks to be getting well established in heavier fuel.
