Here’s another update of sorts on the #FawnFire and what’s happening for those interested.

We took a moment today to go eat lunch at a place we really like called Wilda’s in Redding.
The food is great, simple and we like to sit outside on a nice day.
THREAD 1/
Hubs met me from work and we sat outside on a bench/table next to the street. Behind us were 3 guys from somewhere close by who sat behind us. It took this picture from my car as we were leaving.
2/
While we sat there many subjects came up:
The #FawnFire
How the fire started
Who started it
The “riot” at the capital that was being called an insurrection
And the rally they had barely heard of recently at the capital that few attended
Nancy Pelosi
Biden

#Update on #FawnFire and our home

Today, we are still not in our home. We were lucky enough to have a CHP friend drive by our home, stop and look and also several others in our neighborhood.

The house is intact. The fire stopped about 1 mile from our subdivision thankfully
1/
Thanks to @CalFire, @Reddingfire and all volunteer fire departments along with countless others helping to stop this blaze from devouring everything.
There is ash and debris that is extensive, so we are told. We left the house quickly, so freezers failed.
2/
We are still not in our structure and probably won’t be for another day or two. We don’t know. We check the 211.org every 6 hours to update us.
Our pool is full of debris and ash. Our rooftop, gutters are going to need work/cleaning and also our air ducts.

#FawnFire (#MountainGate, Shasta Co) - From the community meeting: 6,820 acres & 10% containment. 169 engines, 45 dozers, 35 handcrews & 29 water tenders assigned for a total of 1,663 personnel. 9,000 structures remain threatened.
#FawnFire - A damage inspection team from CAL FIRE is en-route & arrive tomorrow, as a result of that they should have updated structural damage/destroyed figures tomorrow. A priority today was mop up & patrol in Div Y on the S/W side, significant amount of structures there.
#FawnFire - As of this evening, they've had no reports of any additional structures burning today. Lots of good work has been done & those 9,000 structures that are threatened are now in a much better situation than earlier on, but a lot of work left to do.

#FawnFire (#MountainGate, Shasta Co) - Long update from Air Attack as they were departing about 20 ago: retardant is holding really well on the left flank between Bear Mountain Lookout & Bear Mountain Rd, the wind shift helped that side.
#FawnFire (#MountainGate, Shasta Co) - There is still some tree torching & potential on the ridge below Bear Mountain proper, but resources are there & doing good work. Right heel is bumping the retardant in Division B & may need resources in there.
#FawnFire (#MountainGate, Shasta Co) - Stated there is big potential @ the heel of the fire on the lake side, mentioned they obviously have the lake there but the concern is the steep country & potential for it to move out back & then to the east & come back around.
