Outside of earthquakes, fire is easily the most destructive force of nature on Earth. The devastation in California is something out of an apocalyptic movie. Unreal.

It survived the fire like 7-8 years ago in that area. The winds have begun to push the fires Eastward now towards Brentwood and further E/SE. I think the Getty Villa in Palisades has (so far) remain unburned but the night ain't over and morning has yet to arrive.

At face value ensemble suites indicate a close call but the trends the past few runs as well as the tendencies of this winter are unfortunately not on our side.

which channel are you listening to? I'm listening to V-3 now, which seems to be focused on the Eaton Fire. I was listening to V-1 earlier, and they were trying to evacuate a 40 patient assisted living facility and all of the patients needed ambulances for transport. I'm wondering if they didn't get there in time. Wouldn't the Arcadia fire be a part of the Eaton fire? Arcadia is basically right there next to Altadena.

Canadian doing what the two ensembles did tonight, shift east.
