AA ordering two additional tankers any type.
S/O forming up to start with evacuations.
S/T 9250C entering the unit.
Cal Fire calling it 10 acres.
Does anyone have a scanner feed for this ?
Not the best, but there is some updates coming through. If anyone has anything better feel free to share!
Thanks Wasatch

IC diverted S/T 9250C to the fire instead of cover assignment.
About ten minutes ago heard IC say they are good with just two tankers (T93 and T94) - previously the order had been four.
IC just gave status update on command channel said things “much better”, no new spot fires in past 30-40 minutes, looking “a lot better”. I believe I also just heard them release T93 loaded.
