Detwiler Fire changed direction today 90 degrees and its length became its heads from Hwy 140 to north of the Merced River. Fire will soon be into both Mariposa and Mt. Bullion with potential for major loss of structures.

The fire has jumped Hwy 49 to the east (yesterday) and Hwy 140 this morning and is now making a run at the City of Mariposa which is being evacuated en masse and scores of strike teams are being ordered and air tankers are on no-divert with a second VLAT being ordered.
