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.
UPDATE: Just N of #CaldorFire near Smith Lake is the #SmithFire. This is a NEW start, not a spot fire. While there doesn't appear to be much fuel up here, crews are evidently concerned enough to keep a helo on it which continues to drop water.

Today's #CaliforniaWildfires thread begins here:

#CaldorFire: the flareup W of Lake Margaret has grown significantly in the last 12 hours. Fire has run N of the lake into Bucks Pasture and has jumped Strawberry Creek. Several hundred additional acres have burned. Remember...
...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
NOTE on Lake Margaret area: you will likely see a lot of images like the one here coming out today. Please remember folks have returned home not far from here so when you share it, please choose your words carefully and include some of the info I provided above.
