Entire city of Redding NOT under evacuation

I know some people in Hyanpalm- anyone know what's going on there?

that's a real asshole thing to say.

Some say it will be some say it is. Not many live feeds on weird

My friends in that area are not socialists, but conservative or unpolitical.

Am following this carefully since I have so many dear friends in/around Redding and all thru' Shasta County.

OK, so damn it, we already have the tech to seed clouds for rain, so WTH is it w/ this not happening?!

Oh wait!....my bad....it might be quite the opposite where ass-hats are doing whatever they can to drive people off certain tracts of land.

Update: this is only 3% contained
There are 1,748 fire personnel responding to the Redding, CA Shasta County #CarrFire including 110 engines, 34 water tenders, 10 helicopters, 51 hand crews and 22 bulldozers.

I'll check

Water and supplies are running low at shops #CarrFire

#CarrFire Multiple homes burned in the #LakeRedding area. Emergency crews are beginning to let residents back in. The fire is contained in this area. #Redding

State of emergency.

National guard activated.

Sounds good for that area- for now anyway.

It's strange, I haven't heard any of the fire bombers flying overhead, I'm near enough to the airport to usually hear them.

Oh boy!!

They can't
