AA requested 2 addl large air tankers. Expanding evacuation orders to the north for both sides of Hwy 97 up to Ball Mountain Rd, Juanita Lake, east to Old State Hwy.
Heat signature is actually bigger than the Lava right now, which appears to be cranking up like it does every afternoon around 3.
Here’s the visual from Goes 17 - poppin’
Radar image earlier showed some rotation in the pyrocumulus for an extended time, any info from the ground
Reporting 6000 acres and 5% contained.
Persistent strong rotation signature on radar right along Hwy 97 a mile or two SW of Macdoel. Strong possibility of a substantial pyrovortex on the ground in that area:
Yikes, edge of a valley… as in the the wind could align with the dreaded “L” shapes?
As of 6/30 8159 acres and 5% contained.
Went unified command around 0800 today. Currently 9,500 acres 6% contained.
from the amount of updates since the change to Unified Command I guess they put the fire out!
Must not be doing much because there is no heat signature showing.

Crazy that a old abandoned hotel makes the news.
This went out today from the Klamath. Since I live 8 miles away I wish there was more.
