San Diego Is Burning

Filed under: Etc.

This really sucks!

The city of San Diego and surrounding areas are in a state of emergency.

8 seperate fires have burned 40,000 acres and the mayor told everyone to stay home Monday.

No school. No work. Stay off the roads.

If you are in one of the areas to evacuate, evacuate ASAP.

Things are so bad right now that the radio stations have gone dark. Workers are home.

Stay strong SD!

The area of San Diego that has been evacuated is over 100 square miles! The fires are out of control and now burning into heavily populated areas. For those of you that know SD, It's from Highway 78 south to route 56 — between the 15 all the way west to Interstate 5! That's about 15 miles top-bottom and 10 miles east-west. Insane!

I am in San Diego. This fire is moving fast. Last night when we went to bed there was only 1 fire, when I woke up they said there was 8. I am lucky to be in more South San Diego where it's not really at. I hope everyone stays safe, and I am so sorry to the people who have lost the houses.

Re: sara – just wanted to update everyone-
over 100,000 acres have burned as of 10am on monday morning. none of the 8 fires are contained, and because of the santa ana winds the fires are continuing to grow. i live in san diego and the air is filled with ash and smoke…

jen says – reply to this

39

I live just outside of Downtown San Diego, and it's pretty bad. When you walk outside your home all you smell is ash. I'm just hoping it doesn't get as bad as It was 4 years ago.
IT'S ONLY NATURAL says – reply to this

40

Wildfires are part of nature. They are needed and used to burn as they pleased. We are too concerned with putting them out to save our precious belongings. Greed shouldn't have built an $800,000 house right in the middle of a forest.

It sucks right now in San Diego. Was listening to the radio and it went dead all of a sudden (93.3). Got e mail from professors saying they are canceling classes but according to other people San Diego State University is still open. My prayers go to everyone who lost their homes

tallpam says – reply to this

51

I live in central San Diego and can see the sky getting darker from the smoke as the morning goes on. I'm far away from the fire but can feel the results. Ash is falling all over and the air smells smoky. The report is it's only going to get worse. This is too similar to the fires 4 years ago. Didn't the folks in charge in charge of this city learn anything from the Cedar fire how to prevent this from happening again????

I am in La Jolla and go to San Diego State. I am NOT going to school, I can't even see the sun, everything is smokey and it's hard to breathe. This is my first year in San Diego (from Seattle) and I am terrified right now. They are saying this is the worst fire the SD County has ever seen and there is no end in sight……

Re: Jen –
Homes in olivenhein have been evacuated but the city of encinitas is still okay.
dee says – reply to this

72

Re: Jen – The SD tribune says it hasn't reached there yet, but likely will eventually and will fit the ocean before it is put out. “I think it will go to the ocean before it stops,” Metcalf said, which means the fire would pass through Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and Encinitas.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you in SCal! God Bless you all!
Kat says – reply to this

74

Yeah, it's pretty bad. The sky is like a big chain-smoking fiasco. It also doesn't help that 0% of it is controlled. I'm fortunate enough to be in a safe area but let's pray for everyone who is evacuated.
Ashley says – reply to this

75

I too am here in San Diego (Mission Valley area) and it is pretty bad– I am in my house and have all the windows shut but it still smells like smoke/fire. I am just hoping that it doesn't get any worse!

Re: Pee on you – Wow, you must live a pathetic existence if you wish that much harm on so many people. There is a serious situation out here right now. I am an administrator here at San Diego State University and the surrounding areas are in big trouble. For all of you who are wishing ill harm on those affected should be ashamed of yourselves. San Diego has always been a very generous city, helping those areas (Like New Orleans) whenever they needed help. Right now, San Diego just needs well wishes for all those who are affected, regardless of whether or not they have $800,000 dollar homes (which by the way is horrible inaccurate estimate of home values here). Again, keep your horrible negative comments to yourselves and keep positive thinking for all the firefighters and rescue workers who are putting themselves on the line right now to save this beautiful city. Thank you.

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
