944 and 911 are round robin out of Mc Clellan supporting dozer line in Jose basin area. Anchoring at Sugar Loaf Mtn. Might be some other tankers in the mix. MODIS shows heat through out.

There were 6 S2 tankers working in the round robin load and return. Painted red along a line approximately from Mile High (south of meadow lakes) through meadow lakes (painted many structures), out into Jose Basin, near sugar loaf mtn and finishing at the san joaquin river. This was supporting dozer lines and engine crews through out those areas. They ran that up to cut off time.

Plans for tomarrow, if clear air again, is to bring the 2 VLATS and 4 LATS. Didn’t catch where they desired to use them. Something about heavy fuels and we need a lot of LATS.

175,893 Acres as of 1025Local via InciWeb. Looks like the persistent inversion is keeping the spread somewhat manageable, at least on the West and SW perimeters. Active fire N and E from what I heard from A/A this morning. If the inversion breaks it’s going to get sporty. Just nasty air though here in Div E.

Looks like we don’t get an IR flight tonight due to weather at the aircraft’s base in Livermore (low clouds and fog).

AA15 over the “Bullfrog” fire by Courtright reservoir requesting copters and maybe fixed wing to get in and restore some containment. It’s spotted to the north end outside retardant and the fires getting active. Copters assigned to Creek heliports are smoked in and can’t assist. This will need air support resources from outside the Creek fire.

There are no ground resources assigned to this. Div.A is driving out to look for access for ground crews.

Bullfrog is a spot that spread outside the Creek fire 10 miles from the head days ago.

Rest of the fire remains to smoky to get helco up, yet.

2 Type1 , 2 type 3 and 1 VLAT pending fills for the bull frog.
