Your #CaliforniaWildfires alerts and updates thread begins here. We start with an important #CaldorFire alert...
#CaldorFire ALERT: As I have been reporting all day, fire has reached the ridge leading up to Little Round Top. This is confirmed on the ground and on the Leek Springs cam. @Defensible1 also is showing 2 heat indicators exactly where the Leek Springs Cam is showing plumes.

...the area burning is well inside the "alligator mouth." While spread is expected to continue, there is black to the W, N, and S, and Little Round Top to the E. No imminent threat to structures. While many refer to this as the "Kirkwood area" locals know it's well N. #CaldorFire
