The #CreekFire jumped CA-168 just south of Shaver Lake. People still in the area are unable to leave Shaver Lake due to the road conditions. @latimes @latimesphotos
Update: People are about to be escorted out of Shaver Lake, as as road conditions have reportedly become less hostile. #CreekFire
Some people waited at the Sierra Marina parking lot for much longer than I had to, and I waited for 3 hours! #CreekFire ImageImageImage
After most of the press was escorted out, I broke off from the fire for a few hours to try and relax a little bit, before things picked up in the early hours of the morning. I returned to the #CreekFire to see it lighting of the night sky. ImageImageImageImage
News photographers photograph the #CreekFire as it jumps across CA-168 in the early morning hours. Image
And with that, I'm out of the fire zone and about to get some rest before returning to the #CreekFire for more coverage for @latimes. Please consider supporting the journalism we do at latimes.com/subscribe

GM from Lusaka! @VP Kamala Harris and the motorcade are en route to our first stop this morning: Panuka Farm, a Zambian owned, operated, and worked farm that is using climate-smart agriculture techniques and digital tools to increase the quantity + quality of their produce.
@VP @latimespolitics @latimes @latimesphotos @cmsub Seeing everyone lining the streets as the @VP Kamala Harris's motorcade passed made me think of the images Paul Fusco made of the RFK Funeral Train.
.@VP Kamala Harris toured Panuka Farm, looking at leuttuce, sweet peppers and greenhouses.

GM from Capitol Hill where it's potentially January 3 Part 2. @GOPLeader has arrived and was instantly swarmed by a sea of journalists.
House Republicans delivered two more stunning defeats to the Bakersfield Republican in the chamber’s fourth, fifth and sixth votes today.
Instead of gaining ground, #KevinMcCarthy fell further from his goal: His vote total declined with Donalds switching votes (to himself) and Rep. Victoria Spartz voting present.
