They cannot get in drops yet because of wind! But the wind is fairly calm right now...they were dropping water yesterday...then there was a rumor of a tanker crash on the mountain...

They cannot make plane drops into the fires according to KTLA but they are now dropping on repeater stations and the high school. Fixed wing aircraft is now dropping the fire retardent on the repeaters. One just flew in.
