Air and ground resources are actively working to contain the #NorteFire in Orange County.   CAL FIRE prepositioned resources were in the area and ready to support initial attack efforts, allowing additional resources to respond quickly. CAL FIRE’s aerial firefighting fleet, the largest civilian aerial firefighting fleet in the world, is supporting ground operations alongside partner agencies with water and retardant drops as firefighters work to contain the fire.   Under Red Flag Warning conditions, protecting lives and property and stopping the fire’s spread remain top priorities.   For the latest fire information, including acreage, containment and evacuation updates, download the AwareCA app at aware.ca.gov. @OCFireAuthority

🛫 Aircraft in the air. Resources on the move. She helps coordinate it all. For Michelle, being a Communications Operator (Fire/EMS Dispatcher) means working in a high-pressure environment where she helps coordinate aircraft as incidents unfold and gets resources moving when people need help. It’s a job that comes with a lot of pressure and responsibility. For Michelle, knowing she can play a part in helping others is what makes the work worth it.

What’s a Strike Team? A Strike Team is a group of the same type of firefighting resource working together under one leader and a common communication structure. When an incident needs additional firefighting resources, Strike Teams allow firefighters and equipment to deploy together as a coordinated group. A Strike Team consists of the same type of resource and a designated leader. A Strike Team Leader is the officer responsible for commanding the Strike Team during an incident and ensuring the team operates efficiently, safely, and in line with Incident Command System (ICS) procedures. 🚒 Engine Strike Team: 5 engines + 1 Strike Team leader 🧑 Hand Crew Strike Team: 2 hand crews + 1 Strike Team leader 🚜 Dozer Strike Team: 2 dozers + 1 Strike Team leader Strike Teams may be assigned to an active wildfire or pre-positioned ahead of Red Flag Warnings, strong winds, lightning or other conditions that could increase fire activity. The goal is to have the right resources in the right place and ready to respond when conditions change.

🌊 For Nicholi, it started with the water. His dad taught him how to surf and sparked a lifelong love of the ocean. Today, Nicholi is a lifeguard and rescue swimmer with CAL FIRE’s San Luis Obispo Unit at Pismo Beach. He performs water rescues, responds to emergencies, and helps keep beachgoers safe. He also trains others, helping them build their skills and confidence in the ocean. For him, the most rewarding part of the job is simple: helping people. #PismoBeach #Lifeguard #RescueSwimmer #CALFIRECareers
