I just did a Lookout Livestream on the current situation on the Park Fire,. We looked at mapping from this afternoon, charted the fire’s spread over past 27 hours, and talked about the fire’s potential for major growth. https://youtube.com/live/5inxc28JIls

Sorry about your friend…and appreciate the kind words. Real sad thing is that some folks that had been burned out during the camp fire lost their home AGAIN right down the street from my friend. Lightning struck twice. Really feel for them. Stay safe!

This is pretty wild. I am 162 miles away from the Park Fire as a crow flies. You can see the Header looking due North from my the front of my house. You may have to enlarge the pic but it’s a faint little column middle of pic.
