No cameras I find can really see the base however,
Palo Escrito has the column drifting over this cam:

and Miller ranch has a drift too:

Maybe if the cams swing around we may see better.

Wow! I’d like to know what happened on the ground. Had to have been pretty exciting (he said sarcastically).
Is there a way capture/share this video?

General update. AA states the fire is not doing too much right now. AA will continue building indirect line with the 3 S-2’s he has. He stated still around 2000 acres and he will continue with the plan. There is not much direct line in place. The Team should in brief around 1600 hrs today.

AA must have placed an order for type 1 tankers, multiple aircraft in route from several bases.
T-104, 105, 163, and potentially one other one.
Plus the VLAT.
