Green Valley Fire (Slide Fire) is burning SW into Running Springs town. Lots of Boy Scout and church camps there too in the forest.

Those look like “space blankets”... I thank God they made it out alive. What a scary picture; it could have been all over for them...

What heroes.

Mandatory evacuations SR 56 to the Pacific, North to Lomas Santa Fe Dr (Del Dios Hwy).. Del Mar and Solana Beach are right in the firing line...

North County Other than Oceanside) is either under mandatory or voluntary evacuation orders...

Looks bad. That is the problem now. Random fires in random directions as the general Santa Ana wind starts to slow down. We will be changing from Wind Driven fires to Brush Driven fires.
