Our #ChicoAirAttackBase is supporting the #GrahamFire in the @LassenNF 9 miles north of Cohasset. We are loading and fueling S-2 and Type 1 tankers as they fight the fire from the skies.

The #ChicoAirAttackBase is working hard in support of fires all over the North State. Tanker 102, a LAT on contract with CAL FIRE, coming in for a reload of retardant. On the ground for less than 10 minutes, then back in the air for another run.

CAL FIRE Butte Unit is supporting other units with fires north of us. We have a strike team of 5 engines, a strike team of two dozers, and 3 overhead personnel out of the unit. Our #ChicoAirAttackBase is also supporting those fires and any others that start locally.

Wind reportedly bringing down trees and power lines around the county, but no new fires reported at this hour. Air resources standing by at the ready in case something new pops up. Stay safe and be smart out there today. #RedFlagWarning #ChicoAirAttackBase #CAwx #CALFIRE_ButteCo

Multiple reports of trees and power lines down because of the wind, but still no new fires. We are ready at the #ChicoAirAttackBase, with one air attack, three tankers, and three helicopters standing by on the tarmac.

Busy day at the #ChicoAirAttackBase loading and fueling aircraft. More than 50,000 gallons of retardant loaded onto nine different air tankers, most of them in support of the #RedBankFire.
