Jolon Rd is the road we take to 101 near Bradley if going south. Hope it won’t hinder your drive home tonight, Suzi, but yes, here we go and we are not even recovered from the winter and last summer’s fire.

I’m here watching it. Looks like they are getting a good handle on it. 3 tankers on scene and 2 dozers. Winds are blowing from North East pushing it towards the lake.
Thx, Jon. Good to know. Winds being cooperative. This is definitely the start of the season now.

Kate,
This looks like a very dry desolate isolated community, Cal Fire says its contained < quarter acre.
Link, Andrew?

There was one earlier on Jolon, sure it is not that one? Still dispatching back up units.

“FFs contained >1/4-acre fire at Salinas Valley Green Waste, Jolon Road, SW of King City (Monterey Co)”
Is this 2 separate fires?
Yes. That one was earlier. This one is the Shore Fire. 28 acres and climbing. One outbuilding destroyed, one MH damaged.

So which fire is NOT contained? Jolon road?
They were both on Jolon Rd, but I didn’t report on the one at the Green Waste center, only the one at the MH Park, called the Shore Fire after the name of the MH park.This one is 1/2 way between Lockwood and Bradley, the waste center was just outside King City
Thank you, kate
