Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

WA is really no better. Fires from south central WA all the way up to the Seattle area. West Coast is just bad right now.

My family has 12 campers on their property right now and have taken in 30 animals from people evac'ing in the Salem area. 2 cities I used to go to frequently for sports are mostly ashes now. I am heart broken for my old stomping grounds.

Scroll out and you can see the air quality on the entire coast right now.

 

Might be easier to see what's not on fire.

 

I think they just want any type of relief since the fire is fairly close to them. AQI of 450 in Eugene compared to 130 or so. I think they're also helping their friends move stuff since they got evacuated (friends had property close to Blue River area). Bad situation for all.

 

Both Vida and Blue River are ashes. A friend has family up that way.

 

Ugh, I figured that was the case looking at the boundaries. They had a spot right on the river they were building up.

 

My friends parents were evacuated last night from browns valley
This shit sucks guys

 

When we were kids, we used to vacation on the river. We'd rent a cabin and stay for a few weeks. I was looking in to that for a short vacation when the Rona hit. Anyway, the fire pretty much ripped through that area yesterday morning/afternoon.

 

Oh sorry mixed Quincy with Quintette, sorry you're going through that. We have a different fire in el dorado forest 15 miles North of pollock pines that has evacuation orders for communities a few miles north of us.

Doesn't look ominous or anything.

 

My truck this morning in Modesto.

 

This is from a local Facebook group, overlooking our city:

 

I do not envy you having to work outside in this mess.

 

The current air quality is actually making me think about actually wearing a mask.

 

The base still has the "4am" look to it right now. I am just glad it is up high, and not ground level like it was yesterday.

A friend of mine made a joke that the protests in certain cities have all of a sudden calmed down and the fires crept up. In no way am I stating they are mutual... but... you never know.

 

Seems like early evening...

 

Well took the day off work and go home to hopefully hammer this fire thing if it goes bad. I lost one already in the Camp Fire and ain't goin through that again. Have been slicking off neighboring lots with tractor aince 6 this morning. Drove from chester to paradise to prep. We wont leave this time!

 

From Chester Air port yesterday at 5 pm. This is the Bear/Claremont/Oroville fire.
