4 firefighters burned in San Diego's Witch Creek fire.
The fire is northeast of SD, in Ramona. There's also a 2500 acre fire at the border.

The fire engine was overtaken by the fire at Witch Creek and the firefighters were burned.

Harris fire has jumped route 188.

Busy day in California.

No helicopters because the winds are too high.

My sister says she's never seen winds like this.

5. Ramona's being evacuated.
My sister's metal wisteria arbor was bent by the wind last night and ripped out of the cement holding it.
