Sounds like they are having water supply problems. Units keep running out of water, and they have had to shut the truck down several times. From the aerial shot, this farm has several long driveways accessing the scene.

Engine 4-3-1 reports the creek on Blackhorse Rd is sucked dry. Request that command start another fill site
Sounds like they are trying to get enough water on the fire to prevent extension to the exposure building.
Tanker 4-1 and 4-9 are to supply the 5" line to Engine 4-8-2 off of Blackhorse Rd
4-3-1 is breaking down the orignal fill site and heading to Rohrer's Mill pond for a fill site

You know it's a big fire when you suck a creek dry...

It's a small creek, but I know what you mean. I think there will be a few empty ponds in the area when this night is over!
