There have been SO MANY it seems they're not letting up at all 
just when we got the Cherry Valley one that exploded contained a new one now in the area behind us in Beaumont up in the hills of Oak Valley near Yucaipa

the smoke is crazy high behind us and flames were very visible from my upstairs last nite

But for real those fires can just stop now. Stay safe.

& for SUCH an important reason 
found yard covered in ash this AM oddly but think the winds kicked up last night, we never had any from the Cherry Valley fire. Saw it on top of my mom cave which gave me
as I did add shake roof to it 
NEVER imagined this far into a development there would be fire danger
our homes all have tiled roofs.

Never a bad idea. I know a couple people who, in different situations were forced to leave their homes because of a fire and they were told they had 10-15 minutes. I’m not sure I’d think clearly in that moment!

I've been starting to put together a mental list. . . and it's annoyingly longer than I'd like it to be.

Yeah it IS a good idea to have somewhat of a prepared just in case goin on we just all THINK that but don't always act on it until yeah your being told you have 15 mins 
I AM gonna prep a suitcase & box or two for that situation and hope we never need it. Even in the burbs and inside the track you never know also the whole earthquake deal
RB I just knew it you were somewhat north of Pasadena
Glad your friend got to go home and HAD a home to return too
We had the strangest sky today here & up past Yuciapa as there was finally a lil drop in temp but the mix of smoke and precipitation made for a strange looking sky
