That is Vandenberg SFB. It is burning off of Orion Road, on north base, and burninv toward Highway 1/Lompoc Casmalia Road. It is burning in a heavy, continuous bed of brush and scattered timber, with a steady 10+mph wind on it.

Tankers are being placed on a hold at Paso and Porterville. Fog is rolling in and copters will continue to help until fogged out. Overall, looking good.
