Approx 70 acres. Fire running to Grantline.
IC added 2 more engines. 1 more dozer. 2 more tankers. And the EU Copter out of LNU.
Decent column.

It appears the fire is east of the EB 580 Brake Check Area (Flynn Road) as you start to descend down the hill from the Brake Check Area where the WB 580 runs above EB 580. Access will be from Flynn Road and if it gets big enough Patterson Pass road. Lots of burns in this area.

Looks like a nice catch per the camera, as I don’t have any updates from Calfire or County of Alameda Fire websites. Will continue to monitor on the Alameda County Fire Scanner Radio application

The new issue on East 580 is they put a shoulder guard rail from Flynn all the way down to Grantline. This make it hard for the engine and dozers to access off of the shoulder. The same for the center divide going east bound. Have to know where the openings are. But typical fire "burn a hundred acres and be back in a couple hours for dinner.
