I went over to Chatsworth to see the fire, and filed
this report.
I hope you and the others on this thread find it of interest.

The fire has hit 18 & 189.
- Not much from TV; HOWEVER, from the scanner and message boards:
- The fire has jumped 18 at Strawberry Peak, 189, North, Lake Gregory, and Rose Lane (our home). They are having problems in these locations. For now, the reporters by Rim Forest are being relocated. It has hit the tree tops in Twin Peaks. Strike teams are trying to get in.
- "The loss of the Towers." was posted on the scanner. Another post was "a red glow" and "don't believe the towers are gone."
- This relates to the cell and microwave towers.
- They have shown the sketch of the suspect on TV.
- The fire is on both sides of Strawberry Peak "holding ltself" at the moment. However, it might surround the peak. [10:34pm]
- it is so frustrating; TV is not helping much at all, no matter the station. :-( "
