Now requesting 10 additional engines, any type, in addition to initially dispatched resources
Lines down on incident now.
I’m hearing the fire on
I’m listening to “San Luis Obispo and Southern Monterey Counties CAL FIRE” using the Scanner Radio app, you can listen to it by going to https://scannerradio.app/?l=NDIzOTQ
For those not familiar with the area, there is a large house, mid-slope, above McLintock’s restaurant, and it is right in the path of this fire. All those homes that butt up against the base of that mountain are about to take a lot of heat.
Lots of good video on twitter for this fire - search “avila fire”
Just under 400 Acres, Paint around the whole fire. Looking like resources at scene are sufficient. 10% Containment. Evacs still in order.
