You can read the news or watch it on TV, but unless you see it in person
you don't realize how scary it can be.
About 3 AM this morning I walked out to the back patio and watched the
fire roar over Mt Miguel, the tallest point around that the TV
transmitters are on. About 10 square miles of fire. Live TV went out.
Uncontrolled. Very scary. The only thing more scary was watching, when I
was a kid, oil wells on Signal Hill in Long Beach explode on fire from a
mile away.
This morning when dawn came there were more cars on our street from
evacuated people finding refuge with friends in the middle of the night.
Not many people worked. Some retail shops were open. Home Depot, grocery
stores, etc. Major freeways closed. Golf courses were closed. Schools
were closed. Air quality worse than LA. Have only saw a few kids on the
street, most were inside.
Patty and I spent most of the last couple of days watching TV keeping
tabs on the fires. We're lucky, we live centrally between the Witch and
Harris fires, and not really in jeopardy. Email is down for quite a few,
so don't expect much of an answer. Half the population here in San Diego
have other things to be ready for.
