My home has not burned yet. It is on the southern edge of the mandatory evacuation but winds were less yesterday and blew west.

Southern California Edison sent a letter late Monday to the California Public Utilities Commission acknowledging its electrical facilities are in the area where the Silverado fire broke out. But it said there was “no indication of any circuit activity prior to the report time of the fire” or downed conductors.

“However, it appears that a lashing wire that was attached to an underbuilt telecommunication line ... may have resulted in the ignition of the fire,” the letter said.

The prayers are working as we watch from afar. Thank you to all who are praying!

Thank you for the update. I did read yesterday that the winds were expeceted to die down last night, I hope that happened and continues. Those Santa Ana winds are horrible.

Prayers for you and everyone there including the firefighters.
