Harris Fire Update...
The top photo shows the view east from Lyons Peak as of a couple of minutes ago. You can see that the plume near Barrett Lake is greatly reduced; I'm not sure whether that's the result of firefighter's action or it just burned out. The smaller, closer plume near the lookout tower is also smaller and much lighter in color, hopefully on its way out.
The bottom photo shows the view west from Lyons Peak, toward the town of Jamul. The smoke plume we saw earlier just south (left) of Jamul Butte is completely gone. I watched news reports of the firefighters working hard there, with lots of helicopter support; I'd bet that their efforts are why that hotspot is dead…
