Fire activity slows on Tucker Fire [VIDEO]

The Tucker Fire did not display the erratic behavior it did the last two days. The 14,419 acre fire has kept within containment lines, but is putting up some smoke from interior fuels.

A California IMT 2 team will assume command of the fire tomorrow morning at 6am. It is estimated that 500 firefighters will be in camp or on the fire lines at that time.

Fire camp has been moved to the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fairgrounds. Heavy traffic from fire trucks, water tenders, official vehicles and personnel should be expected in the area. Please use caution.
