A favorite for many of us, a lot of Carlsbad is on fire, and out of control.

When all the East Coasters were dealing with their horrible winter...I teased, as a Southern Californian, that we weren't having winter...but not to fear because we would be on fire come summer. It's NOT even officially summer...This is the perfect storm.... Santa Ana's and premature heat. Stay safe everyone. The "season" is young.

My sister is in the San Marcos area that is burning like crazy still and they got evacuated.
Stay safe!Lawren

We are about 15 miles from the closest fire at Fallbrook. It started Wednesday morning. My son in law works at the weapons center there. They were all evacuated yesterday morning and the base is still closed.
We never get any smoke from the fires where we live. If it wasn't for the news, I wouldn't know there were any fires.Last edited by JWC; 05-15-2014, 10:08 PM.John

They just said about the same thing on The Weather Channel. Fire Season is year-round now.

Originally posted by Brogers92026 View PostI live here too. There were about 10 different fires. One was caused by sparks from a bull dozer. The rest are all suspicious. When we have a "santa ana" weather condition ( humidity less than 10 %, strong dry winds from the west and higher temps), the situation is explosive. Even if we had got triple the rain this year, the fires would still have occurred. So, the tie-in to global warming is weak, at best. Green vegetation I cut last week was absolutely and surprisingly bone dry today. So, this is a recurring weather condition where the winds come from the North East. Nine of the fires are of suspicious origin. They have already arrested two individuals. More to follow.John
