Still reading through the thread, catching up.

From Beverly Hills/Beverlywood today, the worst (thickest, darkest) smoke was to the east... then, thicker whiter smoke to the south and it is drifting westward. The sky became more hazy today, dimming the sunshine.

I may stay in all day tomorrow....

Orange County - Lake Forest Evacuations

The city of Lake Forest has just announced mandatory evacuations for the following streets in Foothill Ranch: La Solita, La Perla, Pandale and Calle Cabrillo.

El Toro High School, located at 25255 Toledo Way, has been activated as an evacuation site.

For traffic control purposes, Portola Parkway at Alton Parkway is open to local residents only. For the latest information, residents may contact the city's hotline at (714) 628-7085.

Stevenson Ranch - Evacuations:

Homeowners are being evacuated from the area just north of Stevenson Ranch off Valencia Boulevard and The Old Road, says Sgt. Darren Harris of the Santa Clarita Sheriff's Station.

He says it is unclear if the fire, which is burning right up to the back yards of various homes with smoke billowing over the area, is an offshoot of an existing blaze or an entirely new fire. There was no immediate word on the number of people being evacuated.

More closures
