I am watching KTLA and so far they are keeping the fire below HW 18 because of backfires they have set and because the wind is blowing to the south so far embers are blowing to the south back on the fire.

Worse case scenario is here.
Backfires are being used on 18; so far, so good.
Here comes the air support!!!!!!
- The eastern part of the fire is well established running toward Running Springs, Arrowbear, and Fredalba. It is fast; crews are establishing coordination and strategies now.
- Air support is on its way to coordinate with ground troops.
- From the fire captain on KTLA: As long as the winds stay South, the backfire should meet the main fire and MAYBE burn out a bit. It all depends on the winds staying their course. If the winds change toward the school.... well, let's not think that way. No air support yet.
