The fire is in the hills around the HS, but the school grounds themselves are fine. Brea HS was just built a few years ago and the were built to very strict fire codes.

I heard from Mouseygirl. All roads are closed from Bakersfield to LA exxcept one. She was on it. For 2 1/2 hours.

She turned around and drove home. She told me to tell anyone that will be in LB, that she will miss everyone tonight.

I just realized that Mickey Lumbo is very close to the fire zone (Yorba Linda). I tried calling him, but have not been able to connect. I may try to head over there if I don't hear from him.

My prayers are with all of you dealing with the burn zones and the smoke filled air right now. Stay safe.

The smoke's cleared up a bit hear in Garden Grove. I think the wind changed direction.

I can breathe again!

Well, mostly.

The fire is very close to my mom, but they haven't evacuated yet.

We're in Corona and are within a few minutes driving distance from green river - but no smoke around us. we're on the "good" side of the wind so it's all blowing away from us. Thankfully.

They just announced Kevin and Susan's area for evac on NBC4, and it's shown on the OCRegister map.

5 Freeway through Newhall Pass is open again.

I don't think that map is accurate as the description (on another page) says "East of St College and North of Lambert". We are West of St College.

Also, we have not heard any notifications.

Most of the fire is on the other side of the 57 freeway from us.
