INCIDENT INFORMATION
Unified Command: Six Rivers National Forest, CAL FIRE, California Highway Patrol, Trinity County Sheriff, and Humboldt County Sheriff.
CURRENT CONDITIONS
The Lightning Complex Fire is currently 26,000 acres with 33% containment. 2,111 personnel are assigned to the incident. USFS, CAIIMT 11 and CAL FIRE continue to work closely together in unified command with a full suppression strategy to protect homes and other structures, communities, crucial infrastructure, and important wildlife habitat.
Fire activity was minimal overnight with only one instance of fire spotting outside of the control lines, and that was quickly contained. Crews conducted several successful strategic firing operations and improved control lines using dozers and handlines to remove fuels. Control lines are holding well.
Campbell Fire
Crews will continue to strengthen fire lines and limit the spread of the main fire. Fire crews will patrol and extinguish remaining pockets of heat inside control lines on the west side of the fire.
Ammon Fire
Firefighters will continue strategic fire operations along the southwest perimeter in the Friday Ridge area. Crews will continue to improve and reinforce fire lines along the Six Road of Ammon Ridge and within the Friday Ridge System as well as along Titlow Hill Rd/Route 1 out to Highway 299.
Weather
Lightning and thunderstorms may occur today but are less likely than yesterday. This activity could produce erratic winds that may increase fire activity. These storms may form even above areas with thick low-level smoke. Cooler overall temperatures are predicted today.
