The fire is backing into Descanso, and should arrive this afternoon. US Forest Service has put a ton of resources in and are standing by. There's dozers working north of town. I'd say they'll be biting fingernails and watching the wind direction 'til morning.

Oh my God, my friend from Descanco just called, they have evacuated from Descanso with their horses and dog. They are staying off Highway 8, Buckman Springs Rd. Tulloch (local resident) has a meadow there and they have camped there. He was most grateful to hear your report about the USFS at the north end of town. He was in tears knowing that we all care and hold him and his family in our prayers. Thank you my freeper friend!

The wind is dead calm right now. It's the best chance for the FF to knock it down now. Where's the aerial waterbombing resource??? It's just heart-breaking...
