No Nana said they renamed the area Erwin Lake it is next to Sugar Loaf. I know they still address it for postage as Big Bear City

MCD

[LizardQueen]

1 fireifghter dead, 2 severely burned per Fox news

Oh, crap. I was hoping they wouldn't lose anyone.

LQ

[Johnny Gage]

mega air drops occurring along the I-5.
C-130's, Helo's, DC-4s

working very hard to keep it from crossing the freeway.

[lainie]

coordinates for next drop -- they want pounded, are clearing people out

34 15.64
117 119.78

[azGOPgal]

You're welcome.

We had major fires all over Az last year, so I know a little of what you guys are going through.

How close are you to some of these fires?

You all be careful out there.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Isn't that the second FF lost? I thought I'd read about one who died yesterday.

I THINK.

[BurbankKarl]

there are structures burning east of Mtn Community Hospital....(is this arrowhead?)

also the command is asking for situation in Fawnskin...hearing reports of smoke encroaching

[LikeLight]

KCBS . . . fire just coming right up to little neighborhood on hilltop . . .

[Brad’s Gramma]

I'm safe. And yeah, we all remember what you went thru last year.

I'm SO angry at the environmentalists...!!

[maggief]

Let's hope Geraldo is wrong ... again.

[slimer]

mega air drops occurring along the I-5.

What part of I-5?

[lainie]

They say Fawnskin is the north edge of BBLake

[Ladypixel]

Not a scanner update, but a ch. 7 (ABC) update:

Reporter in Big Bear. Says Fawnskin majorly threatened, winds are pushing fire up the canyon. Video shown of Big Bear Village - looks deserted. Only people they've found up there were the people who operate Rite-Aid, who stayed behind to get food/munchies/water to the FFs.

[TomGuy]

Encroaching on another residential area:



A bit northward of the above pic:



Chopper reporter says something is burning (second pic) because there is also black smoke coming up.

[Letitring]

Oh God, I was afraid of that when they said they were making stands and determined not to lose anymore houses.

[CathyRyan]

Oh No! May God Bless Them and Their Families.

[spectr17]

FF reporting fire just south of Fredalba, Runing Springs area. Estimates fire will push up to that area and Mount R in 2 to 3 hours.

Mount R is the huge "R" you see on the mountain just north of Redlands, just to the huge arrowhead on the mountain over above SAn Bernandino.

FF not willing to commit his guys into that area with errsctic winds in canyon
