Judge it!
We are north of San Diego in Banning, CA and are being pounded by massive winds that is blowing the dust, dirt and sand left from previous fires.
As I write this, our once green lawn, is now covered with 3-4 inches of dirt and sand. We are trying to keep the dirt from coming inside our not so 'air-tight' California Delux windows by duct taping around the windows. I've also had to even put towels down at the base of the front door to help prevent dirt from blowing in. Our house is in good shape, but the strength of this wind in unbelievable.
Our roof tiles, as well as our neighbors' roofs are all coming 'unravelled'. We've never seen anything like this. In fact, one of my windows (brand new replacement windows that were installed following the last sand/dirt storm) is starting to creak like it could blow.
The sound is like that same whirring as you might hear in a bad snow blizzard. The wind gusts come in gusts every 30 seconds or less.
Around our neighborhood we've seen trees uprooted, branches flying around, signs twisted and damage to roofs and property.
Unbelieveable....

San Diego fires force evacuation of 250,000 residents
Nearly 250,000 people were forced to flee their homes in San Diego County Monday as about a dozen blazes pushed by hurricane-force winds burned throughout Southern California.

Wow. Thanks. That's lovely. I wouldn't be talking about hell while laughing at the thousands of people losing their homes to fires down here.

Really, what an idiot. You obviously don't have family and friends who are affected by these wildfires. Laugh all you want, you obviously have nothing better to do, IDIOT. You disgust me...

Hoping that things get better with this. I heard there is an evacuation location for the lake arrowhead residents in san bernardino. My thoughts are with everyone going through this rough time.

I know that the fires start from Mexico to Los Angeles. I have family in Coronado area as well. They are still ok, not evacuated at this time. There are 2 fires in San Diego and the big one in Malibu. I am keeping close to the news.

Jeez you are evil. |

You're right! Canada is only the #1 Trading Partner with the USA, and the USA get more oil from Canada than from any other single nation. Also the best comedians come from Canada, so you're right, what do they know other than being your # source for TRADE, OIL and LAUGHS! California needs a lot more than prayers to a supposed God that wants to punish you to eternal pain and misery ... a good guy huh! |

Hey I'm from Canada and we all feel for you here, don't let this idiot speak for our nation. We are much more caring than that. Hopefully things get settled down out there, and everyone is safe. |

Wow I hope this never happens to you!!!! May God have mercy on you. |

You sir (sic) are an idiot... this is a tragic event and you are giving decent Canadian people a bad rep. Most Canadians (I would say all, except this A clown) feel deeply saddened. |

Coronado is fine as of 10/22/07 2:40PM. Just a little smokey. |
