We've been using Watch Duty since it came out. Super helpful at our place down in Miramonte where we seem to be surrounded by non-stop fires. I usually get a notification before seeing the Cal-Fire and USFS fire trucks drive by my house!
 
Smoky in central CoCo this morning but it cleared. Have they moved further than 20% containment yet?
 
the sunset from the wall was vibrant and i could see the smoke in the horizon heading west on 4.

I've seen three fires nearby in the past two weeks- the Corral fire, Greenville fire and Patterson fire were all in my backyard, metaphorically speaking. There was a fourth in the Altamont that didn't get big enough to be a CalFire incident. I hope that rate of fires doesn't continue.
 
0 containment for a 10,000 Sites Fire located near Stoneyford and another fire burning in the foothills near Cooperopolis :thumbdown
 
Seems like the 2 years of good rain have allowed the fuel to regrow.
 
Evidently New Mexico is having a massive fire.

Might be a tough fire season for the whole West.
 
Yeesh, that looks bad, I dislike that we actually have a fire season now.
 
I remember fire season being a thing when I was a kid. However the large expansion of human dwellings have likely made for more urgency to deal with it.

Hoping all in Copperopolis are safe... and the fire season gives us a break. :angel
 
we don't really have a fire season anymore, more like a fire year. If this winter is dry some FFs will be eating X-mas dinner on the line
 
We're having our second quasi-scare of the season right now, but should be fine. The way they attack fires early is so different from what it was just five years ago. Easy to talk shit about California, but our fire fighting systems are so good these days.
