Update on how many acres and potential resource orders ?

Just saw 1200 acres. Not sure how accurate that is though.

2900 acres, 0% containment. 40-60MPH winds were observed last night.

Per Calfire MVU 2900 acres 0%. Fireighters working hard but dealing with 40-60mph overnight.

AA is over the fire, and the 2 tankers from Ramona are just about overhead as well.
