A friend of mine said he son barely made it out. He drove as fast as he could and barely escaped. Lost his home and his truck.

So.... what are the odds that terrorists (illegal immigrants/refugees from any Islamic Nation,etc) started this fire ?

I grew up in Lake County, but don’t live there now. This is a VERY BAD fire. In a normal year the area is very dry, but this year it is unbelievably bad. There are a lot of people with no way to escape. Pray for the residents and the fire crews.

Looks like it was a quiet middle class town.

Prayers up.

Lost his home and his truck.

Sad for him, but good that they got out. I have a friend in Lake County. He spent several decades accumulating car parts and memorabilia for his business restoring vintage cars. No way he'd be able to move a fraction of it, many dozens of vintage cars, hundreds of car body parts. I hope he's okay. His property is nestled among many large trees in a forest. Also have a sister in Sonoma in the forested hills. Very pretty place to live, but scary if a fire comes in.

#ValleyFire has now entered Sonoma County. At least one power plant at #geysers has been damaged.
