Lake Fire, 7/29/19

7:00 pm — 300 acres, 40% contained.

6:00 pm — I am a bit behind, as this was grocery day, and there were THREE road constructions between Cambria and Morro Bay, so it took much longer than usual. I understand this is now 250 acres and 30% contained. SLU has sent a strike team of 5 engines.

Here is a photo:
