I looked for a scanner link. Do we have one?
The guy that usually covers that area is away working the Creek Fire.

Tanker 911 and now 912 as well as 737 having made at least 4 drops seem to be looping out of Porterville for a very fast turnaround, here’s hoping! Update, the 3rd DC 10 is here also Tanker 914

At the rate it’s moving it will be there sooner than later.
Yikes, with that rate it’ll be on SRA in no time

Probably the one in the Mountain Home state forest
Firedude52 - are you talking about the South Fork of the Kaweah River?
Edited: I just checked it out. You are correct. The SO has posted an evac warning clear to Three Rivers. I should have checked this out first. My apologies.

A recent twitter post said it is raining burning embers in 3 Rivers.

Earlier there was lots of charred bark, wood, and leaves but nothing “burning”. Lots less coming down now. No sense in panicking people with hyperbole.

Exactly. There’s still a lot of open acreage to burn before it gets in to the actual “communities of Springville and three rivers”. The outer areas of the communities are closer to the fire but still a ways away.

Have you heard any update for Sequoia Crest and Alpine Village?
Thanks
Doesn’t matter if it’s Fed or State team the lack of resources available is the biggest problem any team will face right now.
This fire has been under staffed since it started.

Anyone know anything about the Camp Nelson or Pierpoint area? Any news on damages?
