Yeah he does a good job. And his weather report he just relayed is depressing.

Has there been any updates on the western side of the fire, out near Juniper lake? Last I heard there might be been a couple of lightning starts, but GOES has been showing activity.
Does anyone have anymore update on peninsula at pen drive toward A13?
Here is some good ground level info:

Thats not the dump
Its north of there off 36
Gotcha, only thing returning on the map is the La Sierra dump in that location.
I’m evacuated from Chester to a bit south of Standish, I’m not yet worried it’ll come down into the valley. Brush and green crops don’t spread fire as easily in any case.

As soon as my feed application gets approved(or tomorrow AM) I will have a west zone command feed online from Chico. It will show in Butte County on Broadcastify(currently with some old hardware I had lying around, will buy some upgrades for it tomorrow)

Here is a look at it on GOES-17.
The portion of the fire that was taking off yesterday around Willow Lake looks to be burning north into Lassen Park with great enthusiasm, and likely taking out Drakesbad. Kind of hard to get a peak at it with the clouds shadowing the weather satellite, but when it is showing, it is quite a run. The left-hand blob is around Willow Lake, middle left blob is pushing down toward Highway 36 between Causeway and A-13, and right of the 3 blobs is the fire threatening Westwood. You can see WW as the small area of light at 5-o-clock. The satellite image has a ‘city lights at night’ layer on it.

Susanville has 2 burn scars (the Sheep and hog fires) from last year protecting a majority of the west side of it.
Any update? Did it make it to the Penninsula?

Dixe Fire Scanner is up and running this morning on broadcastify under butte county. This only has west zone command traffic on it, nothing else competing for airtime: Dixie Fire West Zone

The last live stream I saw at 4 am it was just north of 36 and they had a ton of engines lined up on 36 to hold it. Lots of single tree torching but no crazy fire.

Zeke if you look at the VIIRS 375M S-NPP, I feel like it gives a little bit better accuracy on those layover spots.
