    CONTACT: Incident Information Line:530-303-2455
    Media Line 530-497-0315

    WHAT: Evacuation Orders
    WHEN: Effective Immediately
    WHERE: Douglas County, Nevada


    The following Evacuation Orders are being issued for the areas below.
    Hell, at the rate this fire is going, they'll be evacuating Salt Lake City in couple of weeks.
    ... The liberal agenda preys on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by:
    * Creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;
    * Satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation;
    * Augmenting primitive feelings of envy;
    * Rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government

      Is there anything to burn East of Minden?

      Hopefully these evacuations are out of an abundance of caution.

              Looks like CALfire ran out of stuff to burn on sly park... And my house was spared.
              Still covid sick as a dog, but now there's less to stress on.

              Praying for everyone else still in danger.

                I pray you get better, and yes praying for the safety of everyone fighting the fire and still in it's path.

                It looks like we have a victory on the west front, in particular along the Sly Park. Lots more clean up and hard lines to be built and some areas in the 'island' that are not stubbornly resisting efforts to be put out but hopefully they'll have all that buttoned up soon.

                    Early morning view of the South Lake Tahoe area from Armstrong Lookout. What was eerie watching the time lapse was the star field moving and then I saw a couple stars start moving in strange directions. I sat for a few moments transfixed and then realized it was the CalFire mapping plane's navigation lights. Heh. Too early in the morning!


                    Main bad news I see this morning is the wind shifting more to the north from northeast and pushing the fire more directly towards SLT. Also, there's a northwestern SLT flank developing north of 50 and the winds are blowing pretty fierce up there right now...

                        One sobering statistic I heard yesterday and was easy to confirm on the SAR map was that the fire has now run over 40 miles from west to east. I just measured it and the ruler came back with 44.4 miles. Mind boggling.

                          Yeah its really sad. But all the resources were focused on trying stop it from spreading to the west because that is where a lot of homes are. I dont know when they started using airtankers to drop retardant, but seems like they couldnt get any deployed until at least a week.
