UPDATE: The city of Malibu is advising residents in Puerco Canyon to begin evacuating due to a wildfire driven by powerful winds. This area is north of Pacific Coast Highway and about 1 mile west of Pepperdine University. Residents along the beach on Malibu Road may soon be evacuated. Pacific Coast Highway is closed between Kanan-Dume Road and Topanga Canyon. Residents are advised to head to the west. Evacuation centers are being set up in the Zuma Beach area.

A wildfire driven by powerful winds in the Malibu Hills this morning threatened a university, destroyed at least one home and forced the evacuation of hundreds more, authorities said.

Of course, Ernest! That’ll be great fun! And now you’ve got your choice of two limos or Lijahsbubbe’s Hum-Vee for transportation.

I’d recommend Brad’s Gramma’s limo but the last I heard, she turned off the jacuzzi’s heater. That jacuzzi in the back of her limo makes sitting in L.A. traffic a delight.

If Lijahsbubbe doesn’t mind, I’d love to ride in the Hum Vee.

Just heard on the San Diego Police scanner that people are going southbound on the northbound lanes to get out of Ramona. They are evacuating the entire town.

Just got a report from someone who spotted 8 overturned big rigs driving from Los Angeles to Fontana.

That'd be about normal for this type of wind. I drive that route every day and many semis ignore the high wind warnings. I've seen too many 18 wheelers driving on 9 wheels. 8O

Have you heard anything new on this?

Sheltering in place, nothing further at the moment.
