Fire in Santa Rosa County, FL?

Just saw this posted by a station on the book of faces:
Basically an area around Avalon Beach, bordered by I-10, Escambia Bay, the 281 Bridge, and Blackwater Bay.
What's the scoop, O-T?

To put it bluntly: if you’re in this area, get out. And take your pets with you. Santa Rosa County is opening a shelter at the Milton Community Center. It will open at 4:00pm

Friend,
Here's the current satellite image:
Looks to be three distinct fires, one northwest of Gulfport, one just west of Pensacola, and one between Milton and I-10.
East of Pensacola Fire:
News indicates I-10 is shut just after crossing the bay past Pensacola. Navarre seems be getting most of the smoke based on that image. Pensacola's News Journal says all people on Garcon Point south of I-10 are recommended to evacuate and that the fire has spread south of I-10. This fire is 250 acres.
West of Pensacola fire:
This fire, according to Pensacola's ABC station, is at Hurst Hammock Road in Escambia County and covers 100 acres. No evacuations ordered yet.
Northwest of Gulfport fire:
WLOX reports this is a 240 acre fire they have been battling for a few days now. Last night, the first jumped a line firefighters dug. There have been multiple fires in that area, one near Canal Road authorities suspect was arson.
Yours,
TulaneLSU

The local news in Milton reported it was a permitted burn on private property that got away.

It was originally a permitted burn that got out of control. It was about 250 acres this morning but grew rapidly as humidity dropped and wind increased out of the north. I believe one of the local TV stations may have video of it jumping the interstate, but can't remember which one. I suspect they'll still be working it tomorrow when I go back to work and days to come, it's a mess.

Looks like the Blue Angels did some sort of bombing run on the way back home.

It is very bad. Crossed 98 and a lot of south Walton west of 393 is evacuated.

Started with someone burning leaves apparently. My friend finished a golf game at 4:30 and the course started burning around 5:00. Hope they can put it out soon but some houses have burnt down.

It is a giant clusterfrick. It took my husband 5 hours to get from Navarre to Milton last night. Horrible. DO NOT come over here until I-10 opens again or you will be hating life.
That fire has now grown to 2000 acres from 250 yesterday.
