Mandatory Evac of Taylorsville, including N Arm Road, N Valley Road, and Diamond Mtn Road as of 11:59 PM. Fire appears to have crested Keddie Ridge and showing very active fire behavior on the east. Fire also appears to be pushing back south towards Crescent Mills along Cherokee Mine Road alignment.

It blew over the ridge and spots are being pulled back into the main fire.

Yep, I am watching it. Looks to be in the drainage north of Homer Lake from what I can tell.

Lassen Park Volcanic NP closed this morning. All campers were told to leave to the north (Hwy 44).

This online scanner seems to now be focused on Dixie from the Lassen Co side.

Not familiar with the area but is the Indian Ridge cam looking right at Mountain Meadow Reservoir??? Looking at the smoke column north of the lake is Westwood and looks to be poised to run right through it…if not there already.
This is Round Valley Reservoir looking towards Greenville.

Believe I just heard that thunder was reported from the plume, which isn’t terribly surprising given that plume echo tops are somewhere around 28k feet on radar and conditions are pretty unstable

Mt Meadows (or as the locals call it Walker lake) is on the other side of that column. You can see Round Valley Res in that pic. Westwood was told to evacuate.

"Did the Team’s Plan Really Fail?"
Based on what happened in this thread a couple of days ago I decided to try and put the discussion of “failed plans” into better perspective and maybe provide some help for those new to incident management or not familiar with how incident management works. As a result, I wrote a “short” 3 part summary in the General Discussion section, titled “Did the Teams Plan Really Fail?”
Based on current fire activity this may not be the time for this distraction, but before you make any statement about failed plans on this or any thread, I suggest or request that you read it. Some may find it educational and enlightening. It is only a 5 minute read

As the shortwave moves in conditions will be perfect for a downstream pyrcumulonimbus cloud that produces lightning.
Conditions already seen on the Antelope Fire.
