All helicopters are off the fire now.
The fire is burning approximately 1,000 acres an hour with the worst of the winds expected Sunday PM.
Official acreage from FIRIS has the fire at 10,502
I agree with the higher FMs. I would be concerned with the eventual wind switch bringing fire across I5 and burning to the North. Though it is impacting Federal land now, the establishment of fire there is not nearly the concern it would be a month or so from now.
CHP shutting down southbound I5 at quail lake road per operations.
Appears they are setting up the ICP at Castaic Lake.
