Saw a report of a new fire outside the Bobcat perimeter near Blue Ridge campground. You can see it on the Mtn High West camera - just smoke.

Should we be preparing for possible evac from WW esp. since evac mags have just been posted?

Per radio traffic: Releasing a number of units

Not at this time

Releasing units sounds like a good sign. Wrightwood: Is your Cascadia Fire Season post for here? Are they seeing arson fires?

Yes that's in regards to the Blue Fire. Twitter user "Cascadia Fire Season" posts accurate information

Would this be the reason that helicopters are flying over the East side? Just heard another one.
