question to you, Spectr..and others. If this fire heads up into Mountain Home Village and into Forest Falls...hits the opposite ridge off 38...could it burn over that ridge into Oak Glen?? By that I mean...is there enough energy in this fire to do that??

I think if the winds turn going from west to east they should be ok because they are pretty far down at the base of the mountain. That, however, would be dire for Arrowhead and Big Bear.

Just took a peek at the national cable channels, if anyone watches those you would not have a clue how devastating and dire this is.

I don't know the history of fires in that area, but if there's fuel, there can be fire.

Many years ago I climbed little san gorgonio peak cross country - straight up the side and remember literally on my hands and knees under dense brush (fuel) in what I guess were animal runs.
