The fire continues to be fought with a strong and coordinated response from all our partners.

CAL FIRE: 

Fire was active over night with spot fires in several areas. Significant fire activity is expected today. Ground and air resources continue to fight fire aggressively in the Mill Creek area.  

Fire behavior is expected to be similar to previous days with slope aligned runs, and midrange spotting. Low humidity values will be present across the fire. Smoke will be present in the morning. This afternoon a large column is expected to develop similar to past days.  

Repopulation is occurring in the lower portion of the fire. Please remain diligent of crews and equipment working in the fire area.
