There is not enough pancake left in the world to close those cracks in his ugly mug!

Vehicle stopped at Angeles Oaks on 18 but not sure why

[Semper911]

Does a Northwest wind mean "blowing in the northwest direction" or from the northwest direction?

Wind is always reported by the direction it is coming from. So a Northwest wind is blowing Southeast.

(The exception is when they speak of onshore or offshore winds. Those are the directions the winds are blowing, not where they are coming from.)

I think it still looks a little rare cook it longer and then some kc masterpiece sauce and it would be tasty

You are talking about the deer arnt you

Structure or Grass Fire CAMINO DEL NORTE AT CAMINO SAN BERNARDO San Diego

Oh no. Very near my sister and her family. I'll be tracking this one.

Can anyone tell me if one of the fires burning around Oceanside area is in the area of Vista??? If not, what fires/names of fires are burning near Oceanside? Thanks.

[nicmarlo]

Unfortunately, CHP site is down (again).....I'll keep checking.

[SassNClass]

I have relatives in Vista, near E. Vista Way off the 76.

[Wolfstar]

Some kind of wood-boring beetles. I've seen one or two of them in my backyard from time to time. They look for wood they can bore into. The things are large, black, with roundish bodies, and they make a loud buzzing sound when they fly. Here's a link to a University of California page that gives details about them.

[wolficatZ]

Very interesting, thanks, bookmarked that..

[Wolfstar]

It does, due to that strange, ghostly orange haze that fires and smoke cast.

[Flashman_at_the_charge]

That was a mild one. The bigger one comes later!

Well we still had a few 'screamers' at work. Fortunately I wasn't one of them. :-)

[viaveritasvita]

Appreciate it, nic!!

[I'll be your Huckleberry]

Is there any news from running springs?

[lainie]

Running Springs was holding its own, last I saw on tv

[nicmarlo]

CHP site down for now....probably an overload on their server; this happens often around this time at night...hopefully, it'll be back up soon and I can check.

[spectr17]

fire at Running Springs in one hour from south, according to CDF spotters, that was 1/2 hour ago. Coming up at Mt R
