The Super Scoopers are coming tomorrow.....
Thank you Canada...
-----------------
The wind shifted last night and we got ash and smoke in the area...Today here at work there is a smoke smell here in the office.
There are another two fires that have started. One in the hills above Burbank and one in San Bernardino..:eek:
Richard, does anyone know what's causing these fires yet?? Is it just hight heat and dry brush???
Gosh, this is really scary!!:( Prayers are on the way...and I can really "relate" to all you in CA...I remember fires we had when we used to live in So Cal, but not this bad...and now I just got news that in Simi Valley, Wood Ranch area where we used to live, everyone is evacuating now. This is all just devastating!:(
Slick, I heard this morning that they are already starting to investigate the origin of the fires, but at that time they didn't know anything yet. I can't imagine that they would have been set deliberately. Maybe a cigarette out the window or a campfire gone astray, but anyone who would set a fire like this deliberately needs to be locked up for a long long time! :mad:Quote:

The BIG fire started at 3:45 in the morning....the winds in that area were about 60 mph. I think a power line down might be the culprit...
The Burbank fire is kinda weird..it started on a hillside....it may have been airborne ashes from the other end of the valley- but the Topanga fire is about 10 miles away.
The San Berdoo fire was near a bunch of campgrounds so that may be the start of it...

Did you see the film clip of the Super Scooper???
