CDF Samples Vegetation Moisture/Weather Station

Staff from the Monterey Cal Fire Forester's Office visited Hastings in what we expect will be a program of sampling vegetation for fuel moisture near our weather stations. Hopefully, this will allow them to correlate the fuel moisture sensor in the RAWS station with actual measurements of chaparral and Ceanothus in the field. Jaime del Valle worked with Jonathan Pangburn (Cal Fire) to set this up.
