This morning’s flight shows minimal growth on the southern portion of the fire, near Camarillo Heights, and mainly eastward and northward growth on the heel of the northern portion, south of Santa Paula.

Offshore winds are forecast to pick back up tonight, but the western flanks of both portions of the fire look pretty secure, with minimal growth between 6pm last night and 10:30am this morning.
