Lots of fire history in this area. This will be a extended Incident.

Just ordered mandatory evacs for everyone East of Pentz Rd and North of Hwy 70. This would include Feather River Hospital but no word on if they will just yet.

Multiple civilians trapped in Concow and taking refuge in a creek bed. Ordered 3 medic units in case of injuries. Evac extended to basically everything East of Clark Rd in Paradise.
