    There are 27,000 people that live in Paradise, CA. Every indication is that the #CampFire is not going to stop before it reaches the city. 🚨This is a wildfire emergency. 🚨https://twitter.com/engineco16/status/1060597833739300864 …

    #CampFire has to be well over 10K acres now. This fire is not going to slow down anytime soon. I can't stress it enough, if you are in front of the fire get out now. pic.twitter.com/4Hzy9iqeY1

        #CampFire is growing at an estimated rate of 80 football fields PER MINUTE. Conditions are nearly ideal for explosive fire growth in Northern California today, at the peak of fall wildfire season. Record or near-record dry vegetation + strong and dry offshore winds. A nightmare.

        @EricHolthaus a lot of displaced people are coming off the mountain into Chico. A few big parking lots seem to have become gathering places for those affected. It’s a very sad and escalating situation

        This is very very bad. This is how our fire acted, Valley Fire in 2015. Our town still has not recovered. I have just 3 weeks left living in this state. I just want to get away I can't take it. Going north to WA. I'm done.

        It's already well into the city. On the scanner they're talking about it ripping through mobile home parks and and people abandoning cars on the north ends of some of the main thruways. Like Redding all over again. Paradise is right *in* in WUI.
