thats the salton sea ya moron.
got a better idea of the scope of the fires now?
Oh, thanks for setting me straight, chicken little. I thought it was just Plam Springs and the surrounding desert cities area.
The fires are unfortunate, because so many homes are burning and people have been killed. In scope they're really not much different than fires in BC this summer and you weren't all up in arms about them. This sort of thing happens every few years in CA when there is the right mix of santa ana winds and dry temps. Later this winter there will likely be a lot of rain and massive mudslides with homes falling off into the ocean after being reclaimed by the sea. Stay tuned to your news station for CA devastation 2003/2004.
i actually was all 'up in arms' and shit bout the kowloona burn. forest mismanagement or dourght or whatever. that community took a heavy hit.
the socal fires concern me more tho cuz my family and friends have been affected. i got through to my sister this morning and she got access back to her neighborhood. most houses were okay. a neighbors yard was burnt and smoldering. she said it was wierd cuz here is this smoldering fire but no one around trying to put it out. fire suppression resources are just spread too thin.
i havent heard bo0ut my aunt and uncles house or my cousins in san diego. theyve been evacuated. cant get through on the phones anymore. 'lines busy'.
