i live in huntington beach, ca (92646) so luckily my family and i won't be affected but i just got back from helping a friend evacuate from anaheim hills and it looked like something out a nightmare.
Had to shut all the windows and turn on the AC!! In November! The sky is orange mixed with soot! The nearest fire is about 10 miles from me, but the wind takes the smoke and brings it over the house and drops crap into the pool!
I was hoping it would stay in L.A. County, but noooooooo.
I guess it could always be worse. It's scary to watch it on the news. A wall of fire pushed by high winds!
