FF requesting 5 to 10 strike teams to fight fire at Twin PEaks. Strike teams there already are "thrashed"

Okay...here is the latest from 38 and Bryant. Repeated my route from this afternoon...fear not Spect would never interfer with FF operations...38 is open south of Bryant. Still closed to 'residents only' north of Bryant. I cruised down into Mentone and could see a wall of flame crawling it's way east to the 38. If I lived on that route I would be seriously thinking of making evac plans. Funny thing though, nobody, nobody was the least bit concerned. Police officers had a side road blocked off just north of Amythest Rd...the one that hugs the mountain (where the fire is now)...can't remember the name and my maps are back at home..damn..I digress..the 38 is open through Mentone/ North Redlands but...
Will now try to get up to speed with the rest of the thread.

I am *so* bummed. My grandfather's former cabin still stands at Twin Peaks, my mother is very sad to think it's probably going to go, even though it's been out of the family for many years. Hate to think of Pine Rose Cabins going up too. Very sad.

thanks, it looks like it's laying down for now. The evening is when we get threatened here with the wind shift.
USA today had a good graphic today on weather page how the wind blows here and feeds the fires

Are you near Glendora? From some of your posts, I got the impression that you are near there. Is that area out of danger?
