#MonteFire Looking better. Not so much topography-driven behavior after it reached the top of the hill and flattened out. Air Tankers working hard to box it in. Gonna be a handcrew show pretty soon. They may hold it to 500 acres! This is an Extended Attack Incident; resource orders in for tomorrow!

Alert Wildfire camera view of the Monte Fire.
#MonteFire This is a good view of the steep terrain this fire has entered. Just to the west of El Cajon Mountain. They will likely NOT be putting hoselays in there. Too steep and treacherous.

A map of the Monte Fire.
Weather map.
Pulsepoint response for the Monte fire.
This is the location/terrain of the #MonteFire. Very steep with well-aligned drainages. Always a decent afternoon "onshore" breeze out there. Note: it is best to have your boots laced-up after 1400 hours in San Diego County!
