SoCal fire is getting crazy.
I mean, it's a ****ing NATURAL cycle. it was there before humans got there, and it will be there after we leave this place.
At some point you have to realize that they take a huge gamble by living there, and that's their CHOICE to live there, knowing that this happens every year. We live in an area that's going to get rocked by huge quakes every century. We have to take that risk, just like people who live in tornado alley, or where blizzards happen, or where hurricanes happen. or flooding.
They took the risk. We can help as much as we can cause we should, it's the RIGHT thing to do. But don't say they are completely helpless, they choose to live there.

What if the fire is Karma happening? How do you know it's not?
Those people never learn, that's why they have fires every year, and then mudslides in the winter.
I'm pretty sure it's a sign... like, oh snaps, don't live in an area that was once a COMPLETE, desolate, barren desert.
They take water from up here, use the most energy in the state to pump that water into that basin, to create the hell pit called Southern California.
I feel bad, I don't want their homes to be lost. But seriously, don't you think people will learn that it's not going to change...
I mean, I'm dead serious... Malibu has fires every year, and when it rains, they have mudslides, yet, all these people STILL rebuild there, year after year. I just have to stop feeling bad for them at some point.

i think the lower part is a dust storm, but that concentrated stream above it is definately gases from a frijole eating contest.

There are ways to prevent fire. But down there its very difficult to achieve..
they can do controlled fires in the off season to help prevent tons of fuel being ready to ignite.. but the problem with that is.. you risk flooding..

guess they need to build more mtn roads for fire breaks and access, and cut all the trees down within 100 feet of the road....nothing better than a widy road with no trees blocking your view 
dont know when they will build a road out of SJ that cuts over to I5...if they had one, the Lick fire wouldve been easier to access, since they had like 1 main dirt road and no access to it.

and when you have a pressure gradient like the last few days we end up super dry, hot air that moves nearly 100mph. this happens every year sadly. I think it's much better to keep the vegetation down then to let it burn away, at least there is still some rooted vegetation to help avoid some of the mudslides.
