I am on site of the "Project Fire". It is all within the the prescription units.  About 5 acres.  It is a flare up from that project we decided to supress since we are out of prescription.  on site, Rh 20percent, temp 74 and winds 2 with gust to 6.  I will provide more detail as we progress.

I was in Highland coming up the 210 and saw smoke in the canyon hear the 15 and maybe Kenwood, or more north. Was this part of the control burn or a new fire?
