Not alot of transmitting going back and forth. Engine 12 is trying to figure out where to make access..Radio must be weird. Asking if IC needs more Air Support.

Sounds like the fire is diffcult to get to. A rancher gave them some advice of getting to the fire quicker.

2 Air tankers coming inbound 5 minutes..That should take out the fire somewhat.

Sounds like they are going to send someone back home so maybe they are getting the upper hand on the fire.

Sending the Air Tankers back to Paso Robles, so they are using hand crews & choppers to mop up. Closing 101 down to 1 lane Northbound. Anyone hear how it started? Fortunately winds are light.

The one in Ventura is 15 acres and growing. You can see the smoke pretty good on a few webcams down there.

Listening to the Ventura Fire on Radio Reference... numerous "hot" power lines down (16,000 volt lines) and fireman can't communicate where the fire is... they can hear, but not transmit. Brining in additional repeaters.

Helicopter making one last pass on the fire before returning to San Bernardino.... sounds like they might have the upper hand on the Ventura fire.
