Residents of Altadena,
It has been brought to our attention at Altadena Station more smoke from the Mt. Wilson area of the “Bobcat Fire” in the Angeles Crest has been visible this afternoon than the previous week.
We have contacted the Los Angeles County Fire Department at the “Bobcat Fire” command post regarding any updates. We have been told the higher volume of smoke is from a fire flare up in the Angeles Crest Highway and Red Box Road area near Mt.Wilson.
The flare up is contained by fire crews in an approximate five mile perimeter and is not moving out of the containment or toward the Altadena or Crescenta Valley areas.
We were told there will likely be patches of unburned forest in that area burn throughout the weekend causing more smoke over Altadena than previously seen in the last few days. We will continue to monitor the “Bobcat Fire” here at Altadena Station and keep you updated.
