800 homes lost so far and counting….

We have a few So Cal members here and I wish all of you the best.

Air quality must be horrible with all the ash.

If anybody is driving around down there, be mindful that your cars air filter will get clogged quickly with all the ash floating around. Remove it and blow that sucker out with an air compressor every chance you get.
 
damn, i hadnt heard anything about this, hope everyone there is/will be ok.
 
I live in nor cal and I havent heard that yet! Good luck guys we had our share of fires this year too! Hope everyone and everything gets out ok.
 
It sucks. Me and my dad went to bass pro saturday and on are way out I looked over and said look at the little puff of smoke. We got out of bass pro and were like wtf happen! My friend is a firefighter in training and was on the front lines and said it was crazy. From the top of a hill about 1 mile away we could see flames about 10 feet high. Pretty scary to think less then 10 miles away is a huge fire. As I drove out to riverside to bash yesterday I saw all the burned homes and appartments. Its pretty bad. Luckly the smoke has started to lift. Alot of my friends got evacuated in anaheim hills.
 
I Believe there was something on the news about this the other day.
I hope everything is going Ok and I hope every one gets out safe!
 
I am on my way to SoCal so I will be getting to witness some of the carnage first hand. Been a handfull of bad fires in those hills the last few years but this one is by far the most costly. A lot of multi-million dollar mansions went poof.
 
really sucks man kinda no what it is tho. i live in louisiana and we get hurricanes so all u can do is just let em come and hope for the best


good luck to all
 
There was a mobile home park with something like 500 home in it down there. They are all gone now.
 
I drove by the Sylmar fire and it was scary close. It was like an eplosion went off and the debris and smoke engulfed the 118 and 5 freeway. My allergies are going nuts..
 
I was camping in cali mountains and there was a fire on the other side of the mountain I was on.....pretty neat watching all the heli's and planes fly over and dump water/chemicals!! Good luck to all with houses inline of the fires!
