My latest on the #WonderFire is that it grew last night to 100 acres and is active this morning. However the very large airtanker (VLAT) T912 did arrive yesterday fighting the Fire out of the Medford AAB…she is currently on the tarmac with T104. Update from Watch Duty: Morning update per North Ops - CA-SHU Wonder: 100 acres brush and timber, 10% contained. Evacuation Warnings remain in place railways remain closed in the area
