New Start on the SRF. AA240, Tanker 94, and H205 diverted for CA-SHU-Dry. SRF C20, E31, BC41, PT42, DOZ4, E342, and PT41 responding. Looks like Tanker 96 as well.
Location:
40 26.820, -123 31.290
Any info?

SHF Copter 506 released back to Trinity base and AA240 returning to Redding. All the fixed wing in the area committed to the KNF new start north of Trinity Alps. I think/hope 506 stays available for IA.
Do believe there is a new start as of right now. What I know:
“The fire is at mile marker 5.5 on 36 just past the Mad River Rd (Ruth) turn off and is about 5 acres now and spreading fast”
That may be worthy of a new thread. I believe the name is Fume. 40 25.764, -123 27.810
