A little breezy here and there, and the #ConnerFire laid down a lot overnight.
Don't think we'll get much rain out of those clouds.
More smoke plumes today, but nothing like yesterday! 😀

New estimate is 2,000 to 2,500 acres, (I have no info on containment). At least two points of ignition (I think the new starts are windblown-caused). Stay safe, y'all.

Flying a drone near wildfire operations puts lives at risk. If you fly, firefighting aircrafts must be grounded for safety, which delays critical suppression efforts.
It’s a federal crime to interfere with wildfire response. Violators can face:
>12 months in prison
> $20,000

*please* don't let it get ahold of the damned dump. I can't even imagine the smell/toxins it'd release.

6/21 - crews focused on strengthening containment lines, structure protection where needed, and conducting mop-up to extinguish residual heat at fire’s edge. In higher elevations, greener fuels are slowing fire behavior, offering some help w/ suppression
