The last Hoorah?

Santa Ana Winds (East Winds) are blowing again. There is already a 1000 acre fire in Cabazon (San Bernardino). Here is what they have already:

Per the 209: As of 0100 hrs, 1000 acres. Fire is well established and Santa Ana winds are expected to surface by sunrise. Fire is expected to grow substantially after sunrise. Fire has established itself in the community of Twin Pines Community and unknown number of stuctures and out buildings have been destroyed by the fire. Critical resources needs include Aircraft (Helicopters Type I&II and Fixed Wing Air Tankers any type, Crews Type 1 and Overhead.

Fire is currently on SRA. The communities of Poppet Flats and Silent Valley are being sheltered in place due extreme fire behavior.

I would expect that an order is waiting for us when we go on duty if not another start locally.
