I don’t have a lot of details - but east of Globe near 177/77/Hwy 60 - all with closures and evacs starting.

25,000 acres per latest twitter - evacs at Oak Flat campgrounds and pre-evacs in several other locations.

RFW in this area - down here in the valley it is major windy and dry also.

Live 10 pm news shots and Twitter pics showing really active fire for this time of night and a wind INCREASE in the last hour.

Tomorrow expected a wind direction shift but still in the 25 mph range.

still has a big heat signature. any intel from IR flights? be interesting to see what tomorrows AC/containment figures will be. I do not think the present reported 74% containment will hold.

A lot of that heat signature seems to be the column according to ground intelligence.
