Staring to make a tiny run now on the cam.
Night HLCO will be 8AS with three night flying copters: 4PJ, 7PJ, H531
It looks like winds from the northwest are trying to funnel in
Spotting over the dozer line didnt say which division potential for 500 in the next 4 ish hours for 1000 in the next 24-48 hours if we don’t catch it per radio traffic
Must be on heel because that area got more active too. Pj ch47 inbound for night shift.
Question for NorCalScan:
Can you investigate the Extended attack Air Tactics Frequencies?
Thanks.
By the way the IAP205 Frequency Function labels are mislabeled.
I heard 167.0625 AGC
Also hear Starlink being used by the IC.
Most folks would consider acreage reported from an intel aircraft as confirmed.
InciWeb has not updated, this is why I am asking if anyone had any additional information or if they heard it reported themselves to confirm the new acreage reported. Thank you for your time.
If it isn’t posted on calfire website, inciweb, or released by the Forest it’s not official and as of right now 300 acres and 5% contained.
Thank you.
426 Acres. 5%.
428 acres now. First time I’ve seen inciweb update 30 seconds after an update
.
Great job keeping it small, They slung a lot of mud at this thing.
Had lots of potential(thought it might run), ugly hot country and a great stop by Air and Ground.
Great job by everyone ![]()
I saw the following last night on Watch Duty and question the validity? I don’t believe TCFD has any Incident Management Teams…
The Sierra National Forest Max Fire is currently working with CAL-FIRE’s Fresno King Unit. As of 6 p.m. today, the Tulare County Fire Department Type-3 Incident Management Team will assume command of the fire.
They do and it is a well organized and professional group.
They managed the coffee pot fire last year during the initial days and did a great job supporting the firefighters.
Thanks, guess I’m way behind times.
I stand corrected. I spoke to the Safety Officer on the team this morning. The team was approved last year by OES. Guess I need to catch up here lol. Been retired too long. ![]()
