That’s not good at all, hoping they would get some drops on it and some dozer line around it.

Don’t forget what happened in 2003 with the lightning complex that came through here. #DevilFire 55 shelter deployments. Stay safe everyone. Late night hours produce RH drops and wind shifts deep in the range.

Sounds like there may be a new fire in the area of 6500 Calaveras Rd. in the Sunol area. Sending in a TF to ascertain the situation.

Got a text from a family member. Their Charlie Strike Team was assigned to the Del Puerto Canyon fire this morning. 6 fires and they are currently the only Strike Team assigned. They may need a little help? lol
I believe they are now calling this the Diablo Complex? As things have developed, some fire names have changed. I may be wrong on this one? Still managed by IMT 6.
VIIRS heat detections for SCU Fires from about 3pm, 8/18/20.

Some good news on the SCU Complex:
UC Santa Cruz has taken defensible space seriously at Mt. Hamilton. They got FEMA funding in 2005 and 2016 to do very thorough veg management, and it looks like it is paying off!
