Because of Santa Ana winds, the embers are blown to many other areas to start new fires. Fire departments from all over the area and other cities are helping. I hear some will come from other States. Fire fighters have been fighting the fires for two days with no sleep....they hope to give them some rest tonight with some replacements. Dozens of homes have been burnt down so far. At least 148,000 are under mandatory evacuation in these fires near Los Angeles. News coverage is non-stop on our five local stations since late last night. I keep checking the different stations. As an animal lover, I found this interesting: A reporter happened across a fire fighter breaking open an outdoor bird cage containing 3 Cockatiels. One bird flew away but the reporter who owns a Cockatiel and her camera man rescued the other two birds. They put them in their news van, and them came back to report more on the fires. Another news reporter with the same station apparently rescued two kittens from a home. He was quite scratched up but did rescue them. A small rabbit was also seen hopping across a highway to escape the flames. Last year a man actually took the time to save a wild rabbit from flames... it's on YouTube. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have seen a great need in this area since many of our wildfire have left people without this lively hood as well as without a means of providing food and water for them in rural areas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A young lady went to rescue her horses and other horses....people open the stable doors so the horses can run to perhaps escape the wildfires. A total of 48 horses were saved or at least set free. The video was of the young lady's view as she frantically drove her car through the flames and smoke enveloping her car, I guess after she released the horses. She was praying the entire way asking for God to help her. I will try to find that video and post it later tonight. She actually thought she would die and it certainly looked like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am having alot of trouble staying connected to WiFi the past couple of days so didn't have an opportunity to look for the video. Hopefully, I can find it another time.

Typically, the coverage of CA fires lasts 1 or 2 minutes but this morning it must have been 1/2 an hour. I just hope you and all your belongings stay safe. I have been praying for you.
