They are evacuating town of Hyampom.

Hearing a Type 2 IMT on order. I think NorCal 2 is up on rotation

This had all the heavy fixed wing out of Redding committed before the Delta fire. They had to load back at Redding before diverting to Delta. Had no fixed wing for a while during Delta, then Santa Rosa/Ukiah launched some S-2’s and now some T1 tankers and VLAT911 are enroute. Two major incidents on the SHF in 24hrs.

Per inci web 1500 acres and no containment listed

Per Inciweb fire size has been downgraded, night IR mission put that fire at 975 acres.
