AA advising Rapid rate of Spread and 150 plus acres, AA said it could easily go 1000 plus. He stated " we have a real party starting here". The column is really starting to pump.

Air tanker 70, 71, 72, 73, 10, 12 are all in the area. Tanker 76, 78, 105 are headed that way. Tanker 79, 107, 100 are enroute southbound, either for coverage or for this incident.
Additionally I suspect this fire will get Tanker 914 from MCC
