What a terrible situation yet again for Californians. Hopefully people get out when they are told to do so.

First I heard of this and I live in California! Criminy.

This is why I am on CKA and foreign sites - find out more about what's going on in the USA than you do looking at US news.

This isn't news... call me when there aren't any wildfires in California.

Tens of thousands evacuated. Some sort of medical rehab clinic burned to the ground.

The 'Creek Fire' is burning in the urban area north of Burbank. 2500 homes in that area have been evacuated.

The best coverage on TV will be from KTLA

One of my coworkers is in Newhall and sent me this shot he took at Magic Mountain last night...

The LA area has high winds expected through Friday night and the fires down there are expected to end up being even worse than what just happened in Northern California.

That's one hell of a pic. Shame about the reason for it though.

According to news reports, one of Rupert Murdoch’s mansions has burned down so I guess there’s one small silver lining.
