Apparently turning off the power did not work.

Fast moving fire. Wind gusting to 40 mph. There have even been fire tornadoes. They haven't called for evacuations yet . But some are getting out early. FYI

I thought the power outages were only in Northern California.

The power outages are a joke. And not a funny one.

Memo to Sacramento:

You wanted trains. Trains!!!! Meanwhile you have done nothing for forest conservation or your power grid. Might want to think about your priorities for the citizens of your state.

Is this the Geyserville, Sonoma County fire?

I’m in Northern San Diego county, and we’re run by SDG&E.

So far, they have only mentioned that maybe this would be a good idea in their area as well.

If they choose to do so, they will then understand what a bad idea truly is, IMO.

From where I’m at it looks like another big fire out near Redlands.

It happens every year just before the rains come.

I am not seeing any smoke in San Diego thank God. We are having desert weather today. The sky is clear and the humidity is very low. Actually the weather is pleasant, like Palm Desert in November. Today San Diego is experience the same weather that the desert areas are having.

No one bothers to call out the Governor on responsible topics like this one and infrastructure repair.

The only solution is to turn off power to ALL the state, I guess.

Save the Earth...Don’t wait until the last one leaves

"Apparently turning off the power did not work."

That absolutely worked. Can't blame the power company for the fire if the power was shut down.

Sorry if your water pump didn't work, or your TV or radio, or your solar power, or your electric car.

We don't know that to be the case. Power lines are not the only cause of fires in California or elsewhere. Can't say as I blame PG&E either, as they took it on the chin last year.

California is on the edge of bankruptcy.

There’s some speculating that wild fires are a nifty way to sucker the fed gov into floating the Cali economy for awhile longer.
