36 is not really an option due to the flashy fuels with this wind. The terrain there is very similar to what the fire has already exploded through.

Multiple spot fires on the Beckwourth cam. Any relation to the Park fire? I can find nothing about it.

The big run in Div T looks like it went right thru Campbellville and is continuing up the H-Line toward Highway 32, on Cold Spring Hill.
That removes the H-Line as any sort of escape route from Cohasset going forward.
Timelapse on Colby Mtn cam shows it. Unbelievable.

The current setup, with fire hooking NW from Cohasset toward Butte Meadows looks like pretty bad news for much of the timbered area of Butte County that wasn’t already burned over by the 2018 Camp, 2020 North Complex, or 2021 Dixie Fire.
SPI is going to lose a lot of their forest here in the next couple days.

Zeke, any idea why there are no evac warnings or orders for Butte Meadows yet? I’m less inclined to shed tears for SPI as I am for homeowners in Cohasset and cabin owners in BM / Jonesville, and from what I can see it doesn’t look great for any of them …

Approximately 3-5 acre spot across Chico Creek, but is in alignment in Div X. Actively going direct but not sure that it can be held

There was no distinction on whether it was Big Chico Creek or not. It is very very dynamic right now

There is a three- to five-acre spot fire across Little Chico Creek, per radio traffic. Resources are attempting to go direct and use copters. Separately, people in the Campbellville area are urged by Tehama sheriff to gather their belongings and leave immediately.

In looking at the maps, I’m guessing it jumped Big Chico Creek. Little Chico Creek is on the SE side of Hwy 32 (Deer Creek Hwy).

Still, not good.

Recall all that “stuff” regarding horizontal & twin rotational vorticies that donald haines clued us in on? All of it is occurring in some shape/form/scale right now on this fire…

I understand this signature may not be entirely flame, but regardless the height of these flames is phenomenal…

Hwy 32 at Bruce Rd. is closed, probably due to the Slop-over. Forest Ranch now in evac zone.
