I'm safe (thanks).  Friends in Santa Monica have packed a bag and are on alert for an evacuation order. Friends in Altadena have evacuated to the south of Pasadena.  I'm just hearing a lot of wind, sirens and breathing very, very smoky air.

My friends who evacuated from Altadena went back to their home today.  The home was on fire. It will be a total loss!  These fires ain't playin'.

You’re right.   Urban fires used to be single dwellings, hastily put out by city firefighters.    But these wind-driven fires are wildfires, leaping rooftop to treetop.   Friends in Santa Monica are panicked about their several blocks lined with palm trees, ready to act as matches.
