Re: [californiadisasters] Veg Fire: AEU Sand Inc; Plymouth



Air Attack is having kittens, wants his tankers NOW.

I've been in there, pretty rugged, slow access on the dirt.

Fire snaking through the retardant line, div Q... sending more engines for structure protection from another division.

Jumped D'Augustino.  One homeowner is backfiring, AA is about to make them wet and sloppy.

This isn't proceeding well today.

The Fish Cops (DFG) are responding to Mt Aukum and Fair Play Road...  this doesn't bode well.  That's another few miles up the hill.

No VLAT available, order for three Type 1 tankers in place, no ETA.

New request: 3 closest air tankers IN ADDITION to the Type 1 order.

Translation:  If we don't hit this hard NOW, we lose.  Get me some bleeding air tankers NOW.

Of the major three networks in Sac, only one has a copter (KCRA 3 NBC).  The CBS station hasn't seen the need for the expense and they're the number one news station.

This is just deep enough in canyons that they'll have to use satellite to link home, which is costly so won't happen until nearer to news time (about an hour).

Being in the boonies has advantages, but this isn't one of them.

Div M + O (dunno where they are) are not doing well, fire is well established in a n/s drainage, creating a second head.

VLAT making drops now...  making a new division R, incoming structure defense strike teams inbound

It's the boonies, not the market share zone...
