Air activity is concentrated on the north side of the fire. It appears (in my opinion) that they are hitting hotspots on that side of the fire, trying to keep the fire from moving westward. #HughesFire 1/22/25 1519

In response to this post@ai6yr LADWP pumped-storage powerhouse is at that NW tip of the lake. I wonder if some of the air support is intended to keep the fire away from DWP infrastructure.
@paulashby Most certainly

In response to this postEastern side of the fire is getting significant retardant drops from tankers and MAFFS. Likely along a ridgeline. #HughesFire 1/22/25 1531
Radio traffic has slowed significantly on the operations channel, which (generally) is good news -- meaning they have all the resources they need on the fire. #HughesFire 1/22/25 1540

@ai6yr forecasts are split as to whether wind will stay mostly ENE tonight (NAM) or shift to N or even NNW (HRRR).
