The "Magic" fire as it is called is pretty much directly behind my house. Earlier today we were under mandatory evacuation for a few hours. Then they died down for awhile, but now they are starting to flare back up. Some of my friends who live back in the canyon were given 2 minutes to leave at 12:30 am last night and still can't go back to their houses...

I grabbed my camera and press pass and managed to get some video. Take a look (these are still frames from video I took)
















(those are flames lighting me up!)



And finally an AMAZING video I got of a helicopter making a water drop...this is literally 200 feet from where I was standing:

I have a ton more footage from tonight (mostly firefighters battling flames and some shots of burning embers)..I'll post them later.
