I smell smoke! There is ash falling all around like snow flurries!
I look out my back door, and in the exact same area where I see the fireworks from Disneyland, there is a large plume of smoke rising up into the air and blowing directly overhead!
I go out onto Brookhurst and turn right onto Katella. The smoke is rising up right where Disneyland is! Is Disnyland on fire??!!
I drive up Katella and as I approach Disnyland Drive it becomes clear it's past Disneyland. Whew! I drive on a little further, up to the 405 offramp. It looks like the fire is in Anaheim Hills.
I turn around to go to Albertsons, with a sigh *cough* of relief *choke*! The sky is dark with a red glow, visibility becomeing limited at times. The tempurature is 86* with mild Santa Ana winds (which is why the smoke is blowing directly over us rather than rising up into the air).
On the news they show houses with rooftops on fire and people housing them down. They confirm it is indeed Anaheim Hills. I hope they get this put out quick, and no more houses catch fire. When will people learn not to have wood shingle roofs in the hills of Southern California???
Here's a picture:
