Copied from Facebook BIG BEAR page: LINE FIRE INFORMATION 🔥 UPDATED WED 09/11 @ 8:45 AM Size: 34,659 Acres Contained: 14% A MANDATORY EVACUATION ORDER IS IN NOW IN EFFECT FOR SOUTHWESTERN BIG BEAR LAKE - SECTION BBC08 [Click Here] EVAC ORDERS ARE STILL IN PLACE FOR SEVEN OAKS & ALL SURROUNDING CAMPGROUNDS, ANGELUS OAKS, MOUNTAINS HOME VILLAGE, FOREST FALLS, GREEN VALLEY LAKE, RUNNING SPRINGS, AND ARROWBEAR. A VOLUNTARY EVACUATION WARNING IS STILL IN EFFECT FOR THE REMAINDER OFTHE BIG BEAR VALLEY AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITIES OF LAKE ARROWHEAD, CEDAR GLEN, CRESTLINE, VALLEY OF ENCHANTMENT, AND THE FOOTHILLS OF HIGHLAND. In the overnight hours of the Line Fire Wednesday, fire activity was moderated due to smoke shading and cooler weather. However, the fire grew on the north and east sides due to slope and vegetation driven runs. Public safety power shutoffs occurred on one of the two main supply lines to Big Bear Valley including potential evacuation zones. This caused possible power interruptions when electrical demand exceeded thresholds. Today elevated winds and continued dry conditions will allow the fire to grow. Smoke from fires across the region will help moderate fire activity unless the skies clear and the smoke thins. That would allow for more slope and vegetation aligned runs. There are 3,179 personnel assigned to the fire. Limited resource availability continues to hamper control efforts. There are currently 65,600 structures that are still threatened. A Damage Inspection Team (DINS) is working in the area to identify any structures that may have been damaged or destroyed.
@@Gigi22666 thank you thank you. I’m worried for big bear, but I know all the residents will be able to get out. The evacuation in the mountain communities are not taken lightly and they actually have the power shut off starting about 45 minutes ago for at least 12 hours to prevent any issues with downed powerlines with these Highwinds that are expected.
@@jolenecreech7648 the mountain communities need all the prayers they can get, thank you so much. I am frightened for running Springs as well. They’re actually dropping fire retardant on the entire downtown area, I saw some photos where the streets and buildings are coated in red.
@@williambarry8015 thank you. 🙏 I truly believe the firefighters will get the upper hand on the fire today with the cooler temperatures, marine layer, and decreased winds. Also the train that it is approaching is flatter and easily accessed areas via fire roads ❤️
Thank you for watching. I’m glad you’re safe. I would imagine the northshore/Fawnskin area would be next to be evacuated, given it is further west in the valley. Waiting on a morning report.
@@mountaingoat8788 2003 seemed like so long ago, we were much more freaked out versus today. Hoping for the best. So sad to know it’s coming close to Bluff Lake area…
And that was a clear day. I'm on the north side, didn't go down the hill, and there were times that just going outside was off the table. EXTRAORDINARY work by the fire crews. Best anywhere. And as far as the arsonist. If he's found guilty he should never see freedom again. Ever.
@@1Mrstephen we have evacuated. The zone right next to where we lived was evacuated on the west side of big bear, it was time to go. I know many other people all over the valley have been leaving throughout the day and early evening. The progress the fire is making is, frightening. I’ve heard the snow summit. WebCams are showing flames in the distance. There are great sources for fire updates all over social media, follow the big bear Facebook page and that’s been my best source of information so far.

Thanks for posting, Daniel. We left from the North shore yesterday, and naturally we're worried. Be safe.
