I'm out of the office now.
I'll try to keep you posted.

UPDATE (4:27pm Lucas): Rancho Bernardo threat has likely passed. Rancho Santa Fe still burning, Kearny Mesa still manned by firefighters. At one point today downtown SD was protected by only one fire engine. No damage yet to Scripps Ranch. Out of Black Mountain area. Still moving west, Firefighters will be out all night. Text SDFIRE to 85183 for updates. Evacuations going well, vital that people leave immediately when directed.

Duh - Sorry.

I know the aunt is at a community center or something like that. I do not know where the uncle is. However, his a cop, so I am sure he is A) busy, and B) taken care of.

I am trying that - hopefully it works. I also have calls out to a few mutual friends. I also just remembered that I have his parents number (they live in Del Mar) and will try that next.

And for a real-time update: one of the mutual friends called as I was typing this and I have since been able to reach roommate. He and family are fine. They were evacuated, but mainly because of smoke. He anticipates being able to go home tonight.

That's good to hear!

Has anyone heard from Katiesue and Ponine? Watching KTLA this morning has been really rough, I can only imagine what it is like to live down there.

They had some quasi-celebrity on the phone who was saying that the entire community of Spring Valley was going up in flames and no emergency crews in sight.

On a more upbeat note, I can't stop seeing the title of this as "San Diego Fries." I'm just hoping they come smothered with Cheese and Bacon. ;)

I hope everyone has been doing well. I've been thinking about everyone affected and I hope you're safe and well.

KatieSue and Madz are fine, they spent the night in Coronado. She thinks the house is safe.

KatieSue Evacuated yesterday, by choice I think Swanie posted, and went to the lovely tranquil area of Coronado.
Fire reaching there is not even an issue.

I on the other hand am still here. They did evac Spring Valley last night, and I hear that Lemon Grove is next.
if thats the way it goes, I could be evacuated today.
I'm told that I am over reacting, but whatever.

We have a friend out of town, very much inland downtown, and family out in the beach.
Its that looming feeling of packing that just defeats me.

On the other hand, I have to work. I'm supposed to go in if I want, but I brought my work home.

Remember that the evac is a safety measure. It doesn't mean your house will burn. Although, I haven't seen the news on current structures lost in SD yet this am.
