SoCal Fires Live Thread 10/28

You are an absolute, total waste of font.

You care NOTHING for the death and destruction wrought by raging fires, the worst in CA's history, yet you bemoan all criticism of Kobe's accuser! What amazing priorities!

You, troll, are not fit for society. You are void of human empathy. You are a twisted freak.

Buzz-off. Be fortunate that Jim has a ban on cursing because only of few of those choice words are fit for you.

If you have one smidgeon of shame, or self-respect, you will never pollute this forum again with your excrement-laden self.

I thought lainie was going to bed and I was saying nite to her. I'm still here for awhile. Aren't you supposed to be window peeping or somethin'? Har!

[baseballmom]

I don't know specifically about that street. My brother said the fire came up the other side, or the back side - I was so glad to hear from him I can't remember now. Their house is on the golf course and is OK. I hope and pray things stay calm there. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Golf course in Lake Arrowhead? My brother's place is there too.

[CARepubGal]

Yes I did (I figured a Southern belle would do a better job of slapping down the terminally stupid than I could: trying to avoid cussing) ;-) Thanks!

[spectr17]

[baseballmom]

No, no, golf course at Mt. Woodson in Ramona.

For those who were listening to KFI, and now want current online radio news, hit http://www.kabc.com - Mr. KABC is doing fire reports. (I believe he actually lives in the Chatsworth area, too - so hopefully his home isn't threatened while he's on the air!)

Aw, come on, tell us what you really think.

I live in Wisconsin now. #3Fan needs to be run through the Peshtigo Fire Museum up here north of me. The Peshtigo Fire occurred the same day as the Chicago Fire (October 8 1871) so it got little notice from the newspapers (nothing changes, huh).

Around half the population of Peshtigo (pop. 3000) died in the fire which consumed 3.5 MILLION acres of NE Wisconsin and Upper Peninsula Michigan forest. It even jumped Green Bay! See the pic.

So yes it can happen here in the Midwest. And a wise person would keep that in mind.

Too much news tonight. Hard to keep our golf courses straight.

[Brad’s Gramma]

From the SoCal Fire News Live Thread....in case no one's aware of it, this important piece of news.

San Manuel Indian Reservation, all residents living along Victoria Avenue, north of Indian Service Road to use boiled tap water or bottled water for drinking and cooking purposes as a safety precaution.

US military COS reported military assets have been availble for days, Dufus just never thought to ask.

[spectr17]

That's the mood here, exactly

[wildbirdhunter]

It’s not looking good for that area Droopy lives in the area just off the 94 just north of Lyons valley rd across the road from a wildlife area that.
KUSI news has the area on the TV now looks like the no homes lost at this time a lot of back fires have been set to hold back the fires. Stopped just south of the Daily ranch the DFG how has and has not jumped the 94 at this time Looks like the some heroes are getting back for some much needed R&R in that area.
Power is down in parts of Jamul

FFs bracing for Strawberry Peak to be overun by fire. Public safety, Ham and commercial repeaters will go down if so.
