We have a Santa Ana here today and it is still warm but very dry and now we are watching houses burn right on the beach in Malibu. Unbelievable!

That is absolutely amazing. Why can't the fire department get the beach homes before they burn?

Once these fires start, it goes so fast. I saw it with my own eyes in the Bel-Air and Malibu fires as we used to live in the Canyon in Malibu. We were evacuated for several days and could not return home or to work either for me. I believe it was November 1961.
They gave me all the accounting ledgers and told me to get out in a hurry which I did. It was pitch dark in the parking lot in the middle of the day. We watched the fires on TV from a motel room with the most important things we had and the hotel ledgers too in my car. We didn't lose our home in the Canyon nor my work at the Bel-Air Hotel. You can still read about it on the Internet. These fires are so scary but I would hate to lose my pets too on top of everything else. We had our dog with us.
These home owners in Malibu now lost their pets plus everything else too. It is still on the news live. Yes, they were very expensive homes but still just as horrible. They lost everything. It may not make the national news.Comment

It is certainly dry, drier than ever, even here in AZ, we will begin to worry once again, if we don't get snow/rain...something. I just saw some of this on the news, and it looks horrific...but they report that no human lives have been hurt or lost...so sorry about the pets...that is just sad.
I hope you are not close enough to be at risk, Emmy.Life is short, live it with this awareness.Comment

Thank you, Katiemack. We live far away from Malibu now but "Malibu Sky" lives in Malibu. He is a member here too. We have seen the fires too in Laguna Beach but after they had happened. It seems to be ironic but after the fires, you get the heavy rains and the floods.
I hope you won't get them in Arizona either.Comment
