I understand the Santa Ana winds are supposed to pick up again by Monday...
They better hope the forecasters are wrong.
I wonder when one will start near where the illegal aliens live?
Interesting that one hasn’t
Now I’m hearing something about Manhattan Beach. Gonna check.
I hope the forecasts are wrong too.
This is my sisters area so yeah she’s nervous, her nanny saw smoke an hour ago from far away, my nephew’s school is on Valley Circle but he didnt go to school today the air quality is horrible so she didnt send him
Over Mucho Grande?
We just got a call from one of the few acquaintances have left in the S.CA region. Most all have left over the past several years. To capsulize, she said they’re PO’d, choking and want to leave for good.
This story is going to repeat itself thousands of times....
Getting close to our old stomping ground of Thousand Oaks.
Yes, my friend has a home in Westlake Village, and no insurance. They cancelled him. Let’s hope and pray. But the winds come back in a few days. This is crazy
My sis has insurance but let’s hope it does NOT get to that point they are gonna shut down in both directions the 101 freeway soon
I understand the one on the left gets about $650,000 per year. No joke.
How many terrorists have waltzed across the border in the last four years?
I’m not saying it’s terrorism but it’s entirely possible.
Per scanner it’s already at 600 acres. In less than an hour.
Wow......exploding and the winds are picking up again.
Yeah we just them on Fox news. Fire Freaks ......
Is that the woke version of the NEW Three Stooges?
...then I take it the one on the right eats 650,000lbs per year.
