Evacuations are expanding at a fast and furious pace. Two new Lassen County mandatory evac orders and one new warning in the last hour. Latest ZoneHaven map below:
Yellow color is evacuation warning & the red color is evacuation order.
Couple of SEATs out of Stead-Reno now on that Janesville spot fire. Working with AA06, who I believe those two seats have worked with before (the numbers look familiar).
AA06 is based at Stead as are those SEATS
Here we go again, hopefully everyone gets out safe and the troops can protect Janesville. Got to keep faith.
