This is a great website on current fire information.

Please say a prayer... this fire is very near where I have worked for the past 10 years and we have a lot of friends having to evacuate in La Canada and north Altadena.

Thanks, Dave.  :)  

Compared to everyone west of me, you'd never know there was a fire.  It's not nearly as smoky here as it is toward Pasadena.  The Morris Dam fire is 95% contained so isn't a threat anymore, thankfully.  

It's hard to hear about that Station fire, especially when aerial fighting is being hampered by the massive smoke.  While it's a blessing that there's no wind, it's really making it difficult to use the helicopters and tankers.  Never mind that it's almost impossible to breathe in that situation.

Gotta keep praying for everyone involved ... not a good time over here.
