California Fires

[hsapiens]

Just heard from my family. One of my uncles lives with his family in Ramona, CA and has already evacuated. They (he, my aunt, their 3 dogs, 2 cats, and 3 parrots) are staying with my other uncle and his wife, who lives in Carlsbad, CA. There's already a half inch of ash in the yard in Carlsbad. :| They're prepping the house and yard as best they can but there's not a lot you can do against a hurricane with fire instead of rain. :| :|

Hope everyone on my f-list and your families are doing okay. And I hope California gets some rain STAT.

Thank you! *hugs* I think they will. California seems to have done a great job at evacuating people and getting folks out of harm's way. More than a million evacuees and, as yet, "only" 3 deaths. Those are three too many but I know first hand how stubborn people can be about staying with their houses, damn the oncoming natural disaster.
