30 minute delay between #WatchDuty notification of possible evacuations on the fire in Lower Lake, California vs. WEA. Proof of the usefulness of having a team of volunteers listening to fires... that's a 30 minute heads up.
According to #WatchDuty app, the bit of haze moving over Monterey is due to a small #wildfire in S. #Watsonville, which however, has prompted some evacuations.

Thanks for the reminder, always good to have.
I live in California. For fires, I was happy to add the app #watchduty.
I would rather know about every wildfire sooner, and take my own chosen actions sooner. To use it, you have to choose your alert counties.

Damn. My “Watch Duty” app is going nuts with notifications today. There are like 50 or more #Wildfires burning around us on almost all sides. Still well away from the populated #RogueValley center along the I-5, but filling the air with smoke and keeping the tankers flying continuous loops (until the visibility stops them). Tanker base is just ten minutes from me, so we hear them overhead. I hope we get some significant moisture (and no more lightening) from the remnants of TS Hillary. Some of these fires gonna burn til October rains. #Drought #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #WatchDuty

The number of wildfires burning out of control in Northern California and Oregon, as shown on the Watch Duty app, is astounding. If you live in a fire prone area (and is any area safe now?) the Watch Duty app is very helpful and informative, with not only fire information but up to date and essential information regarding evacuation instructions and alerts for fires in your area. #watchdutyapp #wildfires #watchduty

Did somebody say something about tropical monsoonal rain heading this way? Could it hurry up?
If you are interested in #Wildfire or any #disaster preparedness on the west coast but especially wildfire, you might find #watchDuty really handy. I do.

This photo of the Gray Fire was taken around 4 pm today. It's beautiful and frightening.
The fire is near Medical Lake in Spokane County, Washington. It's near the Idaho Pan Handle, so pretty far north.
I found the photo on Watch Duty.

So does #WatchDuty send out a notification for red flag warnings? https://twitter.com/kentphotos/status/1691324491463561216?s=21&t=Lx6saYHwgQnDhVvByy-miw
