Yes, our football and baseball fields were surrounded by heavy forest. Nice place to take a strool at lunch with a classmate, if you know what I mean. Are grad class of 115 is scheduled for a 30 year reunion next October. Maybe we will plant some baby pines as we weep.

IF they get this guy, they should take his gas can, pour it on his head and ignite him. Public stoning!

did you see some other posting about another spotting of a white van?

I don't remember who was looking for addresses of homes that had been destroyed, but I found this on KFMB's website:

The wind is picking up in dark and ashy Agoura Hills.

What bothers me is that they are setting these fires next to major arteries. I hope they stay off the backside of the San Bernardino Mountains because the people can at least go down 18 into the High Desert.

Hope they find these arsonists and make sure that they are made examples of so that the next fires don't bring out the morons that are copying catting right now.

Spotting a white van???? When? Earlier today?

[Weimdog]

"someone reported earlier said some winds are now shifting. "

I'm at work in Huntington Beach and the winds are light from the NW, Slightly onshore. They have been this way since noon.

Thanks. Everyone's safe, and the family is close.

I think because they can make a quick escape.

There are military bases he could land at.....March AFB in Riverside is close to fires.

Thanks BG.

I couldn't have said it better.

[PhiKapMom]

That's what I remembered from when Yucaipa played up there. I would say that would be a worthwhile undertaking.

That may be the case purely due to the convenience of easy access. They jump out of the car or fire a flare gun or maletov coctail into the woods and take off.

3:12PM - SUSP 2 POSS CARRYING A RED GAS CAN / POSS RUNNING TOWARDS HUMANE WY / WHERE THE HUMANE SOCIETY IS
3:10PM - RP SAW A FIRE W/A LOT OF SMOKE AND 2 PTY S RUNNING FRM THE FIRE

Who can these monsters be? I'm beginning to think that they must be crazy malcontents rather than part of an organization. Or, maybe these are copycat sick freaks.

The biggest, at 100,000 acres, started Saturday near the mountain town of Julian when a lost hunter set off a signal fire, authorities said. The hunter was detained and may face charges.
