    Update, 1:23 a.m.

    Shasta County Jail in downtown Redding is not being evacuated, Sheriff Tom Bosenko said. There had been reports of evacuation on social media, but Bosenko said those are not true.

    Bosenko said authorities have given evacuation notices to "thousands of homes". Now, law enforcement is conducting roving patrols in evacuated areas to prevent looting.

    Update, 12:25 a.m.

    Cal Fire spokesman Jonathon Cox said there is no solid information about evacuations or road closures because the fire is moving too fast.

    Redding police and Shasta County Sheriff’s were notifying neighborhoods of evacuation orders as needed,

    The fire had burned into Redding proper and numerous structures had been lost, Cox said. He said firefighting agencies were in “evacuation and life-saving mode” right now.

    “This fire is moving at such speed and at such intensity that it’s moving faster than we can,” Cox said.

    “This thing is progressing faster than firefighting troops can keep up with,” he said.

    Update, 11:55 p.m.

    Mercy Medical Center is evacuating five babies from its neonatal intensive care unit, spokesman Mike Mangas said. He stressed that the hospital as a whole is not being evacuated.

    However, "high-risk patients are being prepared to evacuate should the need arise," he wrote in an email. He also said the hospital's emergency room is open and has treated several burn patients. All but one, he said, was treated and released.

    "As of this writing, three more patients were being brought in, the severity of their injuries is not known," he wrote.

    Update, 11:38 p.m.

    Cal Fire has issued the following mandatory evacuations Thursday night:

    - North of Sacramento River to Keswick Dam Road, west of Market Street and Lake Boulevard to Keswick Dam.

    - North at Lake Boulevard and Oasis Road to Pine Grove Avenue and Walker Mine Road, west of Cascade Road/I-5.

    Again, evacuation centers are set up at Shasta College in Redding and Weaverville Elementary School in

    Chief Brett Gouvea of Cal Fire sounded a dire warning in a video statement: "This fire is extremely dangerous and moving with no regard for what's in its path.

    Update, 11:23

    Additional firefighters and civilians have been injured beyond the private dozer operator who has been killed, Unified Incident Commander Chief Brett Gouvea said. They are continuing to work on notifying the operator's next of kin, he said.

    Update, 10:25 p.m.

    Cal Fire is reporting that a private dozer operator w"as killed while fighting the Carr Fire.

    "Fact finding on the accident is ongoing and notification of next of kin is in progress," the agency said in a news release.

    Update, 10 p.m.

    Mandatory evacuations have been ordered for "areas west of Shasta Dam" and Summit City, per


    Carr Fire near Iron Mountain Road, Redding

    Update, 9:30 p.m.

    Mercy Medical Center spokesman Mike Mangas said the hospital was not being evacuated yet, but they were getting newborns ready, in case they needed to be taken to another hospital.

    Patients in the Intensive Care Unit were also being prepared, in case they needed to be transferred to other hospitals, Mangas said.

    Update, 9:20 p.m.

    Traffic from evacuations has shut down North Market Street to southbound traffic on the miracle mile. Reports of slow-moving traffic are coming in from all around northwest Redding, and Interstate 5 is reportedly moving at a crawl southbound past the Lake Boulevard interchange.

    Update, 9:05 p.m.

    Cal Fire now says 15 structures have been destroyed and five more damaged. It was not immediately clear where they were loc

    'they' are cooking the bottom/left half of the US. they started in may and have continued relentlessly since

    never in my life have i seen so much west wind and east to west traversing weather. the actors on tv are calling it some type of 'dome'

    watching this on the edge of the dome in houston - the daily stream of aerial sprayers going out to spray over the gulf of mexico, perhaps imparting the spin that's keeping it going

    Thanks, Monty. I will be driving through this area most likely on Sunday. I just heard about this fire today, and it's right in my path of travel. Hope it gets better, and not worse.
    life is good.

    starting to see some YT vids speculating about DEW weapons being used in CA fires, similar to last Oct's big Santa Rosa fires.
