SignOnSanDiego says the 15 is reopened in both directions if that helps at all.

I just read about the [censored] morons that are tying up firefighting efforts because they refuse to evacuate when told and then have to be rescued. Let them burn.

The orange area is where I grew up

Re: The San Diego Fires
 

Although seriously for a fire that has barely made it past the 15 to evacuate that large of an area seems pretty premature.

Yikes - be safe, all.

I grew up in Poway/RB. Last month I was staying just off 56 and 15 for vacation and visiting my grandma who lives at 15 and Mira Mesa Blvd. Better check up on her.

I lived there from '76-'93. Fires happened, but they were nowhere near as frequent as they seem to be the last 5-10 years. Rain ftw.

CrazyEyez,

That's because the world is going mad.

It's 80 degrees and super sunny in Boston right now.

They were evacuating parts of Ramona when I went to bed last night at like 1AM. When I got up at 8AM, it was hitting RB, so it's moving damn fast. I think it's more a precaution than anything and shows you just how little control they have on the thing.

We got 8 inches of snow in CO on Saturday night.

This is pretty normal though.

Yeah I guess I'm just pissed that my moms house has to be evacuated even though she lives within a few blocks of the southwest corner. She is stuck in traffic going west on the 56 to get to her house right now and says that everyone's cars are completely filled and people and their stuff.

These things are so unpredictable, its better she get out now than stick it out, wind changes, she becomes in danger and then she has to do this all again later and putting herself and others in danger.
