Carbon Fire Forward Movement Halted

 According to a 1:50 a.m. update by Alert Duty, forward movement on the Carbon Fire, scorching around 200 acres near Olinda Village on the Brea side of Carbon Canyon was halted by firefighting personnel working since the blaze burst out almost exactly 12 hours prior.


Carbon Canyon Road looks to remain closed as work continues on combating the conflagration.  For some remarkable video, check this out from the Orange County Fire Authority.


Much appreciation to all of the agencies and personnel who are working tirelessly to fight this fire and keep it from houses, structures and people!


Thanks to Matt Eseltine for sharing photos taking of the blaze and those fighting it!
