"we're not out of the woods yet"
Partially contained fires are just that -- partially contained. And time may not be on the firefighters' side."Until we can get some sort of control line around these fires, it's still a major hazard," he said. "There a possibility of a new high-pressure system coming into this area in the next couple of days."

A cool website for fire information that I found this morning. They've got individual webpages for all the major fires
The maps are at least 24 hours out of date, though.
Lyon's Peak webcam shows the smoke around Barrett reservoir being a lot less intense.
Cuyamaca North Peak would probably help for the Poomacha/Witch Fire if it were pointed north rather than east.
I was really hoping to get some new satellite photos, but nothing of that nature seems to be available.
