California Fires

Wow, that is amazing. All that billowing smoke and the fire behind Goliath.

Those pictures describe a serious situation but I have to say they are BEAUTIFUL and very very impressive.

For the first time,last summer we had a disaster like this in Sicily.
Maybe the difference is that the fires have been caused by 2 men.
And warm winds and dry air helped it to expand.
We have been lucky 'cause it started to rain heavily.

I just heard on the news that the government is investigating a suspect that may have started some of the fires. What kind of crazy loon would do something like that?

The smoke here is insane. School is being cancelled in districts around me (not me yet). Anyways, I woke up to find a half inch 'snowing' of ash on my street, it was wierd.

Here are a couple more pictures

Here in Italy they did it for political reasons.But they had to start fires at the House of Government (a paradox) and not in one of the most beautiful region causing death of thousand innocent people.
I simply think they are poor mad men.Their actions will make them spend the rest of their lives in prison(I hope...)

those six flags pictures are beautiful.

Anyone being affected by this? By affected I mean having to evacuate. The latest numbers from San Diego county alone is 1,000 homes and business burnt / completely destroyed. Yesterday and today fire ws close to SFMM which is North of LA County. The Orange County fires have been deemed to have been arson but also those went wildly. Anyway, so what's the status with you freaks? Glad I'm in LA and only fire that could happen is arson of some electrical malfunction

yes!!!


i live in riverside and there are like freakin 14 fires all around me....very sad though =(
