Wildfires - We have two in Orange County

:cry:

I have started on my inhalers and started my daughter on her nebs.

The fires, so far, are far away, but the air quality is teh suck now.

1. Reason #56578564878 to never live in SoCal.

:(

So sorry you guys are there and have to deal with this thing.

[KitchenWitch]

2. Yeah.

Hopefully the Santa Ana Winds will stop so they can get some containment on the fires. It has been downright ugly the past few days with the wind.

4. Does it wildfire every year out there?

It was doing this last fall, too, I think, wasn't it?

Wildfires, earthquakes, land/mudslides...crazy. :(

[KitchenWitch]

5. Pretty much.

We really are a desert, but people insist upon growing things like grass and trees here.

7. You used to live in Minnesota, correct?

I cannot imagine going from MN to SoCal...I think I would blow a gasket. It might be even worse than going from ME to SoCal.

It's a lot harder to hate on SoCal when it's warm there in March while I'm up to my ankles in mud, though. :D

10. I did, and it is times like this that I really miss Minnesota.

3. Damn.

Yeah that is the suck. I'm guessing that means ALOT of indoor time for you guys. :hug:
Hopefully they will be under control soon...

[KitchenWitch]

6. Yeah

I am not sure I really want to be outside right now anyways, since it is in the mid 90s today.

8. Hot dry and smoky..sounds wonderful:(

I'm guessing you are missing some of the fall snow I heard Minnesota got this week....

[KitchenWitch]

11. Yes.

I would love some snow right about now.

[Ptah]

9. All reports I read are horrific.

:scared:

I hope the fires are gone soon.

12. Thanks

I-5 is closed near the San Fernando Valley. So travel to places north are nearly impossible.
