I had to go out for an hour but saw the smoke and know they are releasing a (VAST) number of engines.  The Sac county chopper needed refueling but was simply released. 

I didn't count but an easy 20 something engines dispatched or ordered, dozer and 3 hand crews; 3 choppers, air attack and lotsa overhead. 

A lot less smoke on my return.  Busy but winding down (still spots).  A/A said two outbuildings and one structure involved. 

I'll watch the news in a few.  Second major fire here this year, both on a Friday, both FUBAR the traffic (Friday Flatlander Follies, we sell tickets in the winter).

Initial report was 3-5 acres moderate ROS and additional 5 immediate need engines requested. This was in addition to an 'exceptional' dispatch.

IC changeover, additional 10 engines requested

Now 2 structures involved, 30 more threatened.
