1230pm: The spots from this morning at 430am in upper Stillwater drainage became well established and is currently blowing out the canyon to the south, racing below Shasta Bear Lookout and camera, coming into Bear Mtn Rd at Jennifer, and setting up for Intermountain Rd in alignment. VLATs dropping well ahead of this above Jennifer in hopes to slow it and give ground resources a chance to catch up. That entire drainage is in perfect alignment with the winds.
