Firefighters got a good jump on a fire burning Thursday morning in an area west of Red Bluff. The fire was burning in thick grasses and light Oak woodlands near Red Bank Road and Gallatin Road. Cal-Fire/Tehama County Fire resources from El Camino, Los Molinos and Dibble Creek responded around 9AM and quickly stopped forward progress. The final size of the burned area was 12.3 acres. The cause is not known.
