CBS webcam guy just said the chopper was returning to airport. Rapidly decreasing visibility.

No. Trying to listen to Handel's "in the air" commentary and the Big Bear feed. The only thing I heard is that the firefighters on the ground don't have an aerial view of the fire's direction and that their strike forces are smaller for safety.

Just in: fire blew over 18 at "knob hill?"

Big Bear scanner: Just heard dispatcher say some residence needed escort down the mountian via the 18. Hope they can get out that way.

Seperate transmission

The fire blew up the 18 on Knob Hill (?)

Off to work. Stay safe y'all. It's time for some serious praying. Hopefully the cool weather is going to help.

I guess we're listening to the same feed. I'll turn the commentary over to you. Thanks for keeping us posted.

Just stumbled in here. Man I really slept!

Wheere is Bill Handel and why is he out in the thick of fire? Did Sparky Chuck Henry teach him nothing?

WTF is going on with Hesperia?

Actually, if someone would listen to the other feed on the thread. That seems to be the feed that goes to the pilots in air if they're up.
