The fire is creating winds of 60mph overturning vehicles. Was around 6700 acres yesterday and grew to its current size of 29000+. Local news stations and newspaper have gone dark or evacuated. Support coming in from the North and South, (Mt Shasta City and Chico/Butte County). Flames 100 ft high. Mercy Hospital being evacuated of patients. They are taking in only burn victims. The local Jail was evacuated.

Cal Fire made the call. The fire is too erratic to fight this evening using personnel to save as many people as they can in the neighborhoods.

Don't know, but firefighters have it bad. Excerpt of another news story of the area:
He said the fire behavior was so erratic, there were tornadoes within the fire "tossing around equipment, blowing windows out of Cal Fire pickup trucks."\

The problem is they can’t use their air resources because it is nighttime. One Redding TV Station evacuated to Eureka a station there and using and beaming the signals back.
The town of Burney has opened their arms saying they have hotels, campgrounds and land for animals. An hour east along hwy 299 E.

Indeed, terrible. I was just looking around using Google Street View and comparing to pics of what is burning on the news feed.
You can see the before and the sad after.

We are south of Redding, but had our WALL Fire last year as well as the fire in October down the road from us. Keeping figers crossed as everything is tinder dry. Temps have been 100+ all week. Luckily no winds for us...yet.

That is stupid. inform people they can leave on their own. Elderly could be moved by other organizations.
