View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Just like that 300 years of motorcycle green stickers progress went backwards on pollution.

Quoted: I can't believe so many on this forum live in CA. Wtf View Quote More than 10% of the US population lives in California. There are more gun owners in California than there are people in most states. California probably ranks third in the number of guns owned, behind Texas and Florida. The AR-15 rifle was invented in California. California is home to 32 military bases and more than 128,000 active duty military people, more than any other state in both cases. A lot of us have lived here since long before the state government was taken over by kooks and losers. Many have left, many others are not able to leave because of personal commitments, job situations, etc. |

Quoted: It’s bad, man. Big one up near Shaver & Huntington Lakes started a day or so ago and it’s spreading fast. I live about an hour away, down the mountain. Nearly everyone up there is a solid, patriotic American. Lots of horse trailers on the freeway today, coming down from the evacuation zones The parts of CA that burn are almost never the parts that Arfcom would celebrate burning if they really knew. Quite the opposite, really ![]() View Quote 100% this |

I was born in CA and grew up when there was only the I-5. Watched them tear down paradise a piece at a time. We left 25 years ago and I walked away from a quarter million a year salary to work for a company in CO for 20% of that. Took a long time to recover from that. Fires, floods, earth quakes and riots. Just wasn't where we wanted to raise our kids. Very glad we chomped down hard on the bit and left Kommiefornia in our dust. |

Sierra National Forest, Inyo National Forest, Sequoia National Forest, Angeles National Forest, Stanislaus National Forest, Cleveland National Forest, Tahoe National Forest, Los Padres National Forest, San Bernardo National Forest, Mendocino National Forest, Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Klamath National Forest, Lassen National Forest, Plumas National Forest, Yosemite National Park, and Death Valley National Park =/= California forests or parks.
Most of the fires are in these national manged forests. They're managed with the same western forest management that has fires now burning in Washington, Wyoming, and Colorado - sometimes year around. Nothing to due with Californian dope smoking hippies running the program back in the 1960s when they started the new western region policy. |

Quoted: Controlling the water is why the central valley grows so much food stuff. The fires aren’t generally occurring in the valley, they are occurring in the hills & mountains... View Quote CA has kinda been fucked ever since the mountains were logged off the first time. Management could always be better but regrowth, especially at certain stages, is always way more fire prone than mature forests. I used to spend a lot of time in the Olympics and Cascades, there are lots of places covered in fire weeds/bracken fern where the older trees are still flourishing and you can see where the regrowth burned right to the ground nearby where it was cleared. People are foolish too, it's not uncommon to see houses sited and landscaped in a way that funnels fire right to the house, or obvious fire sources/hazards at the bottom of slopes full of fuel just waiting for the right opportunity. The central valley has it's own hazards though, the next time we get a real Pineapple Express the flood damage is going to be insane. Way bigger threat to infrastructure than fires or earthquakes. We know they've happened every century or two going way back and the last one was 1861-1862. |

Quoted: Really? ![]() View Quote When it comes to fire, there's a huge difference between 84f with 10% humidity and with 90%. You've got to understand, the west coast usually doesn't get any significant rain from July-Sept. and they don't get any dew either. It can go two weeks without rain here in SC and at night the lawn still gets so wet it squishes when you walk on it, that doesn't happen out west. |

Pretty dark here right now. Has been all day. Have to turn on lights to see indoors. But at least it's cool. On Sunday it was 115, right now it's 75. But the sky is opaque and orange.
eta Lots of ash fall too. This is fine! |

Thought it was supposed to be Sunny and 70* year round in Cali? Not 104-116*(except in the deserts).

Quoted: Haha funny guy. It hit 130 in Death Valley last week. On Sunday it hit 121 down in LA county. eta Woodland Hills, not the desert. View Quote Seems like it's always Woodland Hills that breaks the records in LA County. Not sure why that place is always so damned hot. Doesn't seem much different than the rest of the LA metro area. |

Fire trucks from Monterey headed north. Smoke reached down to Los Gatos Santa Cruz hills and Saratoga
