Some good news for Stevenson Ranch, but bad for those downwind.

That’s what they said.I am amazed at the BC-he called no evacuates and the homes would be saved.

Lake Arrowhead....

40K working way over to help out on those (suspicious vehicle calls

tankers ordered and another order for the DC10

Update 4:29 PM
Lake Arrowhead - Air Tanker 722 has drafted 2,000 gallons of water from Lake Arrowhead. It is currently enroute to the head of the Grass Fire.

The DC-10 has been ordered, but remains on hold.

According to the latest estimates, between 1,000 and 2,000 acres of brush and timber. Nearly 2,000 homes are threatened in the area, and 128 homes have been lost according to news reports.

Anyone with possible arson tip should call (800) 47-ARSON. While there are no indications of arson, the widespread nature of these fires may be suspicious.

Fox News reported there isn’t much air support due to the many fires burning.
