Firefighters want everyone off the mountains according to their reports so they have room to fight the fires. Winds shifting according to NWS here in Norman to the NNE for Lake Arrowhead.

On Fox, you mean you could actually see the picture for the giant banner they run across the bottom. Last night I watching the Fox coverage and they showed a house burning. All you could see was the top tip of the roof and flames. The house was blocked by the Fox Banner at the bottom of the screen.

The editors at Fox are idiots!!!

This would explain the comms last night 12am-1am where most of us thought Blue Jay was going to get toasted.

Fire Crosses Highway 18 Warning: The following information is highly speculative and based upon unconfirmed sources and sparce information. Do not assume any losses based upon this information. Between 10 PM and 11 PM on Monday, the Old Fire broke through the fire lines near Rimforest. Some reports place the fire near Pine St. The fire is mostly crowning (remaining in the treetops), but there are some structures involved or threatened. The communication tower at Strawberry Peak has been lost hampering communications and our ability to listen. Firefighters are retreating from the area. The fire is burning towards Rimforest, Twin Peaks, and Blue Jay. Below is a rendering of where the fire may be based upon the sparce information available. This may be inaccurate. Do not rely on this for any idea of structure loss. Even if the fire is in this area, the fire has tended to spot and leap over area. Do not assume all areas in red have burned. Blue areas are areas on known gelling operations. It is likely that more gelling is occurring than shown.
