Lowell has maintained a ROS of 1000/hour for 4000+ acres (should be slowing down now that the sun set). That's friggin IMPRESSIVE, multiple structures in the way, PLENTY of fuel... was 95F @ 7% a few hours ago (I'm 30-ish miles away).
The MMU fire (Willow?) is 300 of timber. Each has high potential for ouch.

Two VLAT, 6 more tankers, I lost count of the strike teams.
They're still ordering stuff.
Second fire in MMU going big too. 300 acres, moderate ROS; pyrocumulus seen.
