Is it just me, or has the head of the fire already burned off the view in this camera?
Edit: answered my own question as the camera got turned to the left a little.

Its generally burning up the canyon, If it turns more east, they will be there for weeks.

Looks like it might be hung up on Perdew Canyon, if it gets across looks like it will have plenty of room to run north and east.

Looks like the fire hit a ridgetop with what appears to be a road running along it. Seems like it gave the air show enough time to get retardant across the flank and head of the fire. Good news considering it’s basically consistent fuels all the way uphill to Crestline from there. Looking like a big stop preventing an extended attack fire.
Seeing the explosive fire behavior off the 15 should be a Watch Out for everyone, in 10 minutes it basically capped out. LCES!
