Thanks! Send the whole thread to all of my out of state friends so they could see and understand, at least as much as we do.

Solana Beach between I-5 and 101, the north part of town being evacuated.

Del Mar, all the way to the beach in the south part, as well...

New fire in the La Jolla Indian Reservation at the base of Palomar Mountain...

Just getting worse, before it gets better...

Winds are bad in some areas... but helicopters are dropping water today. No aircraft up yesterday, winds too strong.

513,000 residents now under mandatory evacuations as of 11:25 am.

Canada is sending down the world's largest air tanker, the Mars waterbomber, from Port Alberni, BC to Lake Elisnore. 27,000 gals per drop.
Sure do hope it helps some!!!

We'll be in Sandyeggo by the 10th. Wish we could come earlier to help out. So frustrating sitting home watching CNN.:(

David K - 10-24-2007 at 10:34 AM

Thanks guys... the Mars water bomber should really 'hose' the fire!

David K - 10-24-2007 at 10:42 AM

New fire on Camp Pendleton near I-5 has closed the northbound side of I-5. Fire in Fallbrook, Palomar Mountain, Lake Hodges growing still.

An area of Oceanside is being evacuated for the first time (I am in Oceanside)...

Smoke here again this morning, ash covering everything...

Diaster total exceeding one billion $... President Bush signed, so those affected can get FEMA .

David K - 10-24-2007 at 10:53 AM

I-5 northbound just reopened between Oceanside and San Clemente...

Can't see the update

Where is that map update?

It is the same link that was posted in the opening post of this thread: http://www.ninedaysinbaja.com/fire.html

14-15 needs to update it as it is housed on his web site, so when he updates the map, he let's us know to recheck it... It is zoomable to see where the active fires are as well as the evacution areas.

FYI: New fires burning on Palomar Mountain, Camp Pendleton, Fallbrook... The Santa Ana winds are dying down and off shore breezes have started up, halting the fires heading towards the ocean and pushing them back onto already burned areas... where they will die from lack of fuel.

The end is in sight!

xiv015 - 10-24-2007 at 09:52 PM

I have changed the map on my website. It now links to a similar (better) map provided by the public radio station of San Diego, KPBS. The map will be automatically updated from now on.

It's updated a couple times a day. I have been working from home this week and following events closely like others. We know of six friends/households that were/are evacuated. Only one sustained any damage, lost truck/trailer/superpanga/motorhome and part of his patio but his house was spared. He lives in Jamul on several acres. He woke up in the early AM with minutes to spare and turned all his animals loose before leaving with very little. He returned early today and found all his animals (horses,goats,chickens) OK. He said someone had left notes on his horses saying "we were fed and watered last night". He does not know who it was yet, whether it was firefighters or neighbors or.........?

Two other friends in Jamul had fire within 300 meters of their homes.

Lots of folks not so fortunate. :(

Lots of nice stories in the news about the valiant efforts of the firefighters and law enforcement all over California this week. Hats off to all.

Nov. 6th! :cool:

Paulina - 10-25-2007 at 07:19 PM

Mateo,
I guess that is what I would do with my horses with only a moment's notice too. Fashion a dog tag of sorts attached their head collar/halter and turn them loose. They would run from the fire and then find their way home in the end, God willing.

It is so scary what is happening down south, and we're trapped here just watching and reading.

We were thinking that Jamul or Dulzura were places we might check out for a future Casa de PDyC. That was pre-fire...not sure what to do now.

P,D (he's home) y C.

Well, after the area is burned it will be safe for a few years! Keep the area well cleared, build with brick or block, tile roof, sprinklers to wet/ cool the home on an independent water source.

Tough or impossible to make a home fire proof...

A false sense of security, perhaps..

I heard one caller on KOGO who was evacuating. He had been there for only a few months. They had just re-built after the Cedar fire four years ago. I do not know the outcome.

Eli - 10-26-2007 at 06:40 PM

Hey Jeans, How are you doing. I feel like I a milllion miles away and have no idea if you were affected, of course I have been thinking about you a lot since I read about the fire. Hope your sweet little casita is safe, at least it appears that you are.

Suzie - 10-27-2007 at 05:03 PM

Tecate border crossing still closed. Unknown for sure when it will re-open.
