fire breaking out near Crest Forest Dr and Ocean, near Crestline

[Ladypixel]

State route 3, if I'm not mistaken.

[Ladypixel]

Actually, one of the fires - the Grand Prix fire - has conclusively been determined to be arson-related.

live 365 is feed of several channels, CDF, San Bernardino Sheriff, air attack

I'm just used to listening to several dispatchers and can pick out certain voices.

Can't find the live feed on that site??

[Restore]

Just got a call from my assignment desk. Sky-9 to be up, and over the Grand Prix fire at 0430 tomorrow.

See you there...

[spectr17]

FF reporting heavy fuel load, like a tunnel when he drove out there, "NEver pull it off" he said.

[Ladypixel]

Good luck...! Don't forget the no-smoking sign. ;)

Anything suspected to have started from the homeless or illegals camping in the woods?

I bet it has happened, but could they ever report that?

[spectr17]

Stay safe, I'll be in L.A. Co somewhere

COM7J on the L.A. Co radio channels

Thanks.....

Nothing reported from the illegals, but they have concluded that the Grand Prix fire /is/ arson. In addition, there was a grey van with two Caucasian males spotted near the Old Waterman fire, and at the Rancho California/Anza/Black Mtn. fire a blue van with three males inside was spotted pulling away as the fire began.

[ArmstedFragg]

The Escondido fire IS the Paradise fire.

[Ladypixel]

Thanks for the correction - not being down in that area, my reports of that region are scattered. But I can tell you all about the Grand Prix and Old Waterman fires! :)

[A CA Guy]

Horrible, just horrible.
