evacuated. We take you now to the 22,000 acre airport fire burning in orange and Riverside counties, prompting evacuation orders. Fire officials just gave an update. Within the past hour, reporting 12 injuries. We're talking ten firefighters injured. Officials say the fire has damaged and destroyed buildings, but right now, the conditions are too dangerous to get close enough to assess the damage. Fox Eleven's Hailey Winslow joining us live from Lake Elsinore with the update. Hailey Christine. Yeah, it's pretty wild out here. And the conditions keep changing. So we're in an old restaurant parking lot called the Lookout Road House overlooks Lake Elsinore, and it's hard to pick up on camera, but the smoke out here is so thick, especially when the wind shifts as it just did. It's part of what's called the Elsinore effect, and it drastically is affecting this fire. Fortunately, they have this massive water source, this lake right here, which they're utilizing with a Sikorsky just missed it. They've been doing these water drops on these spots right here because the concern right this minute is that the fire is going to go over the peak and run down the canyon. So overnight, the fire grew to more than 22,000 acres with more evacuations damaged and destroyed homes, two injuries, a medical issue and a burn patient. And then those ten firefighters with minor injuries. So they are working around the clock. Of course, in these extreme conditions and up against critically dry fuel and this brutal heat before the temperatures finally cooled down today, I'm going to bring in OC Fire Authority Captain Paul Holliday, one of the thousands of tireless firefighters putting their lives on the line as they battle more than 100,000 acres currently burning in southern California. So, first of all, I want to kind of echo what your team said in that press conference at 4 p.m. that you can't help but reflect today on not only the 343 firefighters who lost their lives, 23 years ago in nine over 11, but also the six firefighters who lost their lives in the path of this fire in the 1959 decker fire. Thank you for your service and for being here and working around the clock. First of all, what does that mean to you? Yeah, it's kind of a somber day for us. Nine over 11 is always a day that we stop and remember the sacrifice made by everybody in the country that day, but particularly those first responders at the World Trade Center, at the Pentagon and in Philadelphia, and then particularly for us today, working this fire, the Decker Fire and the firefighters that we lost there in 1958, which happens to be in the exact area we're in. I was up at the memorial there just a few minutes ago, and the fire burned right through that same exact location as that fatality fire in 1958. So, it's a little somber, a little irony, I guess, for all that. But our guys are still out here working hard, trying to make those that went before us proud. Now, just about 20 minutes ago, it was pretty different here. And that is because of the Elsinore effect that you were explaining to me. And for people who don't understand kind of how it works, you were saying it's kind of like a little eddy that comes up from the lake. Can you explain that and how it's affecting this, this massive battle? Yeah. If you'd have been here 20 minutes ago, it was dead calm. There were there were no winds. But as this Elsinore effect. Sorry We're going to go to the Sikorsky helicopter here. That's about to make a water drop. So the Elsinore effect, the wind shifted from an going up canyon to blowing down canyon. And now the wind is blowing about 30 miles an hour down canyon, right into the neighborhood of Lake Elsinore. Wow. 2000 gallons of water you're watching drop right on those spot fires right now. All right, I'm going
