over by Remington Estates stating that she saw a grassfire off of Southern Drive.

I was wondering if you could see a fire directly west of where you guys are, or if it was the fire that you guys are on.

From my location, I can't see anything, but we can really only see to the water tower, which would be the hill that she could see from Remington, but we are putting up quite a bit of black smoke still.

Would you like me to page it out as a fire off of Southern Drive as well?

Did she advise what the location was?

negative. My RP was not able to tell me anything.

She just said that it was east of where she was in Remington, the state.

I copy. Yeah, I don't believe you have anything at this time.
