[californiadisasters] Saddle Fire, Paradise, CA



400+ acres and starting to get a bit rambunctious in the drainages....original report was 5 fires in the area of the Lime Saddle Park off of Pentz Road, and then it really took off.  This afternoon the fire jumped the arm of Lake Oroville and began to progress east towards Concow, while the original portion headed more westerly, for Paradise.

Known by photos from the news but not confirmed is the loss of at least two residences, possibly additional structures.  Evacuations are in place and have been expanded as the fire progresses.

We've been keeping pretty close tabs on scanner traffic on FB, the page is Butte County Public Safety Scanner ( https://www.facebook.com/thenet411/ ).  We also have a Reddit page up and running for the very latest updates.  (https://www.reddit.com/live/xjtulnpzv2yv/ )
