SoCal Fires - Page 5

NBC just shared some info about some morons who decided to stay. Two of them tried to hide from it in their jacuzzi then had to run to a ranger station - a helicopter had to fly into the smoke to rescue them. Another moron drove their truck through a wall of flames to escape.

I'm glad the news is sharing that deciding to stay isn't turning out well. I still think those who choose to ignore the evac warnings and stay be left to fend for themselves.

It rained here last night. I hope that the fire areas also got some rain.

NBC is reporting that it's a 'when', not 'if' Mt. Wilson goes.

I hope they are wrong.

At least it's not a populated area.

KTLA showed firefighters are back on top of Mt Wilson. It didn't look like a lot, but that there are some there must mean that it was safe enough for them to return.

So if they burn down - it's God's wrath for them being such bigots?

If Riley's Apple Farm burns then is God punishing them for being homophobic a$$holes?
