Must, must post this blip from SB scanner. Person on-scene advised that there were people who were refusing to leave. The response from command?

"If they're really dead set against leaving, get their name, their DOB... and the number of their dentist."

I know the PNW is sending down Crews so maybe new guys giving a much needed break and/or taking time to organize

I thought deisel fuel was not flammable. I know up here we mix it with berry bush poisen/spray.

Or did I misunderstand...getting a little rummy.

hwy 18 blocked off by landslide now from where fire burned over by Rimforest

[Free Trapper]

I hope a citation to you is what I call an ugly stick. ;)

Will they be charged with anything substantial?

[spectr17]

I forget the exact charge, basically fine for disobeying a public safety officer or order.

Evac order I think it is.

Hindering public safety also somes into play

Can someone help an East Coast guy with a limited view of the LA area??

I have a sister in Pasedena...... my 85 year old mother says she's in no danger cause she's northwest of LA, but it seems from some posts and maps that some fires are northwest of LA already Simi Valley??)..

Can someone let me know where Pasadena is in relation to all the fires and confirm whether of not Pasedena is in danger at the moment (or near future)???

Thanks!

[oceanperch]

Major Link Find. How did you find that? Is that a Freepers blog or someone you know?

Good detailed info.

Like it was reported chatter quieting down maybe a really good sign.

[Free Trapper]

So they'll most likely be out and at it again in no time,too bad.

Perhaps it would have been better if they had "not" been caught and the fire got them.

Pasadena, CA is 18 miles west of my current position (Glendora), and is in no danger whatsoever of anything but smoke. Your sister is fine. The closest fire to your sister currently is approximately 45 miles west as the crow flies - and the fire has no possibility of spreading those 45 miles unless it can go through seventeen to twenty cities. :)

(Grumble. Having a hard time convincing my media-crammed mind to shut off...)
