Fire in the Sky - San Diego Wildfires are close....

[QueenOfCalifornia]

I need to go to sleep but I wanted to quickly post this - We live on a canyon in San Diego - in 2003 the Cedar Fire, which burned hundreds of homes, came within 2 miles of our house. The fire which is burning in San Diego right now is following the same path. The air is thick with smoke and ash is falling like black snow. As of now, we are okay. I know a lot of people who have been evacuated or who are just standing by and waiting for the word from the authorities for them to leave. The highways leaving the evacuation sites are plugged to a trickle. Our media here is non existent! The local independent station - KUSI went off the air at 1:00 AM and will resume at 4:00 - The networks are running INFOMERCIALS! What assholes. I am in a media blackout during a crisis. Terrific.

Anyway - If we leave, I will be taking my laptop and will keep you posted.
