Mother nature is being a real bitch right now with these 80-90 mph Santa Ana winds helping spread the fires.

They say the Malibu coastline and Pacific Palisades are about 5-7 years away from even remotely resembling what they once were, maybe even 10.

Believe me, I have a lot of stuff packed in case the wife and I need to skip town.

Yes, be safe. Here are two pics from a friend who lives in Rancho Bernardo. Fire is about a mile from his place...

I did get an evac notice, but didn't have to actually leave. The smoke and ash from the Alta Dena fire was pretty heavy by me. I do know a few that live in the Palisades that lost their homes. It's pretty crazy. Everyone stay safe.

I'm watching coverage about the Rancho Bernado blaze right now.

Looks like LA is still blazing away for the second straight week with the Hughes fire being the newest one and incinerating 9,000 acres to date.
