#SandyFire morning operational update with Chief Trevor Johnson: The Sandy Fire is currently 2,114.5 acres with 30% containment. There are 1,121 firefighters assigned to the incident. Firefighters are expecting improved weather conditions today, including lower temperatures and higher humidity, which should assist suppression efforts. Today’s operational priority is the... lower southeast corner of the fire, where crews are working to strengthen and reinforce containment lines. Firefighters continue hiking through rugged terrain to build control lines and mop up hotspots, while aviation resources assist with water drops to cool active areas. Crews are also continuing mop-up operations in neighborhoods behind homes to ensure complete extinguishment. Damage inspection teams remain in the field documenting any impacts caused by the fire.

VCFD firefighters are on scene of an electric vehicle fire in the 11600 block of Ventura Avenue, Ojai, involving thermal runaway—a challenging and hazardous condition. Thermal runaway in EV fires poses unique risks to responders, the public, and the environment. The safest approach is often to let the battery burn itself out while firefighters manage the situation from a safe distance, as direct extinguishment can sometimes exacerbate the fire.

Incredible scenes from behind the fire line as firefighters continue the hard work of building containment, protecting homes and communities, and suppressing hot spots on the #RossFire in Palo Pinto County. For days now, strike teams and crews from fire departments across North Texas have worked alongside local firefighters to battle this fire from the ground and the air. These crews are putting in long hours, working through challenging conditions, and doing what they do best.🔥 As of Saturday evening, the fire has reached approximately 90,000 acres and is 31% contained. There is still a long road ahead. Please continue to pray for the firefighters on the ground and in the air, the departments supporting the response, and every family and community impacted by the fire. 🙏

Sandy Fire Air Monitoring Update - Due to the Sandy Fire’s proximity to the Santa Susana Field Laboratory (SSFL), hazardous materials and radiological monitoring teams continue proactive air quality and radiation monitoring operations around the fire area. Currently, seven air sampling radiological monitoring locations have been established surrounding the incident, including the Chatsworth, Lake Manor, Bell Canyon, Oak Park, and Simi Valley areas. These monitoring systems are being used to establish background environmental conditions and to continuously evaluate smoke and air quality conditions as firefighting operations continue. The Sandy Fire has NOT reached the Santa Susana Field Laboratory property, and there is currently no indication that any radiological material has been released from the site. The attached drone video shows the current fire perimeter in relation to the SSFL area. Public health and environmental agencies, including Ventura County Public Health, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), Ventura County Air Pollution Control District, and the U.S. Department of Energy, remain actively engaged in monitoring conditions and supporting incident operations. The U.S. Department of Energy is supporting air monitoring operations around the SSFL out of an abundance of caution. Radiation measurements collected as recently as 2025, along with modeling conducted following the 2018 Woolsey Fire, continue to indicate that the extremely low levels of residual radioactive material at the site pose no risk to public health, even in the event wildfire activity reaches the area. The SSFL is located in an area historically prone to wildfires, including the 2018 Woolsey Fire. Following that fire, air, soil, and ash sampling conducted by DTSC did not detect the release of chemical or radiological contaminants from the site. Additionally, radiological assessments conducted by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health found no discernible levels of radiation in tested areas surrounding the site. Residents can continue monitoring local smoke and air quality conditions using the AirNow Fire and Smoke Map: About the video: The background map shows the drone location as a circle with a blue arrow. The blue line shows the flight path of the drone, while the moving polygon represents the area the drone camera is viewing.

#autofire; The Auto Fire is now at 50% containment and 61 acres. Overnight, firefighter addresses small, isolated flare ups and stubborn pockets of heat across the fire perimeter. The fire remains static in its original footprint with no anticipated growth. Today, firefighters continue patrolling and reinforcing containment lines as well as addressing deep seated smoldering brush piles well inside the perimeter. Resources from VCFD and Ventura City Fire include Type 3 and Type 6 engines, a hand crew, water tender and one of our UAS / Drone pilots. Firefighters will remain on scene until this fire is fully contained. An IR flight of the fire by one of our UAS / Drone pilots shows the pockets of heat firefighters are working to address. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

Structure protection is in place in Angelus Oaks, Pinezanita, and Seven Oaks. Evacuation orders exist in these areas. If you are in the area, please leave immediately. Evacuation shelters are available at Redlands East Valley High School and the Apple Valley Conference Center. #SBCoFD remains in unified command with San Bernardino National Forest, CAL FIRE BDU, and San Bernardino County Sheriff.

The #Widemouth2Fire has been pushing north towards Fillmore, UT since last night. The fire is currently mapped at 36,438 acres, but has grown since then that mapping mission. With the predicted wind, the fire will likely continue to grow north and northeast. Strong winds are expected to remain active throughout the night. Crews remain fully engaged and are aggressively working to suppress the head of this fire. Fire managers are working continuously with the Sheriff on changing conditions and evacuation needs. On the perimeter east of Meadow, the fire continues to progress towards the ridge, but has not crested yet towards I-70. Crews are scouting around I-70 beyond that existing fire front, to make a strategic plan for future suppression activities. Due to the inaccessibility of the area, and changing wind conditions, no crews have been inserted yet on the eastern side. Crews continue to secure and hold the south and southwestern perimeter of the fire, south of Kanosh, UT. Thus far, these edges are holding with very little heat and growth. There are still some internal smokes with potential for spotting, so firefighters are working diligently to mop up well within the perimeter to avoid any slop overs or spotting. Residents are asked to stay close to their phones for evacuation changes. Any changes will be sent out on an alter to phones and homes within the perimeter of the evacuation zones. If moved into “GO”, officers will go door-to-door to evacuate residents. Please follow the Millard County Sheriff's Office Facebook page for current evacuation updates and information.

🏔️ When conditions are challenging, having the right support nearby matters. The Timber Fire is burning in the Big Sur area along California’s Central Coast, where steep hillsides, rugged terrain, and limited access can make it difficult for firefighters to move safely through the landscape. Essential work to contain the fire, like constructing fireline, requires crews to navigate uneven and remote terrain. That’s where Rapid Extraction Module Support (REMS) teams come in. REMS teams are specialized firefighter medical and rescue teams trained to provide emergency medical care and assist with the extraction of injured firefighters from remote or hazardous terrain. These specialized teams are deployed when firefighters are working in areas where an injury could make evacuation especially difficult. While firefighters always prioritize safe operations and established safety practices, REMS teams are there to provide supplemental medical and rescue support if something unexpected happens. #Wildfire #FirefighterSafety #WildlandFirefighting #BigSur
