Michael Carroll shot the video below on the afternoon of August 7, 2018, of the 747 Supertanker dropping on the east side of the Holy Fire in Orange County, California. If the fire can be held at that ridge where the air tanker dropped, that will prevent it from spreading into Riverside County. The fire is about six miles northwest of Lake Elsinore.
