My son is driving one of the fuel trucks that fuels the helicopters. He said it is absolute horrible.😥🙏🙏🙏🙏

I hope the fire fighters stay safe and shelter in there staging areas until things are less dangerous

[@KarenHinkle-lm6pt]

My son is working this fire..he drives one of the fuel trucks that gas up the helicopters. He said it is the worst he’s ever seen…he worked fires last summer too!

Our Hero's thank you

[@ag_223]

1600 personnel is not enough if we have zero containment over 48 hours into the fire. They need more help.

[@yosefmacgruber1920]

Would more help really make a difference? There is but only so much that they can do. Weather must cooperate to do much.

[@frankblangeard8865]

One million firefighters would not bring this fire under 'control'.

[@yosefmacgruber1920]

@@frankblangeard8865 Then send firefighters to other fires where they can make a difference. Probably mostly doing structure protection at this point. It will stop when the weather improves or when God intervenes.

[@Petalflipper]

A professional fire person said that you could have all the firefighters in the country on this fire and it wouldn't do anything to stop it

[@yosefmacgruber1920]

@@Petalflipper Maybe that is why the numbers of ffs are limited. And ffs do not fight the head directly. That would be a way to become un-alived.

Excellent reporting.

[@opeyshop]

that car that was shoved down the hill could it have a burned body in at that point

[@janetdw]

No, people saw him push it over the cliff. Because the fire traveled North immediately, they have already shown pictures of the burnt car.

I think the guy that started it is in a lot of trouble.

Lets hope the judge gives him a 3rd Strike . But we all know he wont. We should ALL Show up to court Monday in Oroville!!! For his Court Arraignment.

[@yosefmacgruber1920]

Why wouldn't it be normal occasional summertime drought? I have heard some claim that it is cheat-grass taken over, which seems to like to burn itself to eliminate the competitor plants. Why go for a conspiracy theory when a perfectly natural explanation will do? Wildfires are nothing new.

[@alonedemon2652]

Where are the planes?

[@janetdw]

They don’t generally fly at night.

[@CountryLivingOnTheFarm]

I think the left (west) and right (east) flanks of the fire are contained. The west flank being the one near Chico and right flank being the one near Paradise. I’d say about 50 percent of the fire is contained except for the top (north) head of the fire and NE east corner of the fire. Been monitoring it since it began and haven’t noticed growth west side (Chico) or east side (paradise) so this means they have those two sides under control. 😊 Good job to all first responders!!

[@yankeehillraymie1296]

I think that You are incorrect. Knock it off

[@yosefmacgruber1920]

0% contained.

I hope the magnitude of this destruction is factored into the sentencing of the alleged arsonist who caused this.

It is bigger and growing much faster than the Paradise Camp Fire. Now 350,000 acres.

Arson of an occupied structure carries life in California

[@jimmyjames6487]

Probably a slap on the wrist and out tommorow

[@frankblangeard8865]

Only if tried and convicted of aggravated arson. Remember that this is California and actually being put into prison and kept there is unlikely. The suspect already had several felonies and was out.
