words of wisdom for the santa ana winds....

F**K YOU!

The wind through the canyon ripped the targa off my parked car (cleared the hood thank God) but road rashed it very nicely.

That is all.

When I was leaving school(in San Bernardino) today I noticed smoke... a lot of smoke. I started driving and realizing what was going on, but it took me a little while to understand the scale of the problem. There was a fire about a mile north of where I was, and the winds were whipping the embers and igniting the palm trees along the freeway, and any other dry bush downwind. The result was about a mile long strip of small spot fires in residential neighborhoods! It was just getting going too, because the emergency vehicles weren't even established yet... I have no idea what's going on with that now. Took me half an hour just to get to the freeway in SB!
