Okay, my turn to be an idiot: Lake Arrowhead is *right there* -- NE of Strawberry. They couldn't get a plane to grab water from there and drop it on the lookout??

Air attack doesn;t fly at night. extremely dangerous although I'msure you could find some pilots who would try

They didn't charge her? Wow, I had no idea. She was ID'd IMMEDIATELY, IIRC, but this story says little to nothing about the guy.

Spectr charges are pending from what the news reported.
New hot spot in east lakeside by Flinn springs Fire crews are all over it had reinforcements come in so that’s good. This is part of the Blossom Valley fire that’s blowing back on it’s self.

I guess what I found confusing about tonight's network news is that they made it sound as though the main fire was still coming up the hill toward the 18. They didn't really mention, except to number the burned homes, the status of the Crestline fire. It's alarming that there's a fire burning towards Lake Arrowhead from the Twin Peaks side. Are they just spot fires?

Now it's my turn for the stupid question. Where are they getting the water they are dropping or is it fostex only.

This is a high resolution satellite photo that enlarges. Click on the arrow box on lower right and scroll it around.

The fires up north are worse that I thought.
