Nearing 1000 acers in roughly 1.5 hrs, here is the current area the fire is burning in right now. Hope everyone is ok.

Sure is smokey here near our house at McBean and Valencia. Now reports of a fire near Castaic Lake.
Not good, LACOFD helicopters are reporting spot fires 1-1.5 miles ahead of the main fire line.

makes one think these are all being set by some whacko

Seems like we have had guaranteed fires ever since a windy forecast became known as "red flag conditions" and called a "major wind event"

And no way to get the latest news reports unless they have their cell phone fully charged.

Good thing they shut off everyones power so there is no traffic signals while they all evacuate.

They are showing a guy with pool fighting right at his back wall.

I don't get why these people don't know how to use their pool and pool pumps. I guess unless power was cut.

Or have a gas powered water pump. Drain that pool with some decent psi.

Large incidents with multiple separate incidents going, can be ran as one incident. You do this by making a complex. On any large incident even if it hasn’t gone to a complex (biggest), you break it up and manage it by making branches and divisions etc... more than likely they are just calling this part of the fire branch 10. For accountability and resource assignments. It’s all being ran under the tick fire. To name fires the same or that similar isn’t something that will happen.

He just texted me back, everything is good.
Probably staying at his house in Green valley.
Thanks for asking.
Really glad to hear that. That area was a direct hit but once it passed and the smoke cleared only a couple of houses were gone, the fire was moving really fast at that time.

Sad to see.... Agree it seems like with wind comes the fires, cant help to think there is some wako waiting for the right place right times. Also cant help but think that person is one of the homeless wakos...

The news reported with the fire in Sepulveda Dam area that the fire displaced over 300 homeless people living in that area. I think a homeless person probably lit it. And through these fires it exposing even more so how many homeless people are living around that area and why more needs to be done by that Idiot in Sacramento.

Whacko... On the mountain we call them a "Fire Bug"
Last year we had two of them in one day setting fire to just about every escape route we had.
Thanks to Jay Brew and all the other firefighters none of them got out of control.

Just got back into our house. We live up off Flowerpark and haven’t been able to get in since Thursday. House doesn’t even smell but there is a little bit of ash in the yard and garage.
