@ai6yr I was wondering if the fire changed from a regular wildfire into a fire storm after passing over the first row of houses.
Your theory about less preparation tracks with what I saw in the upper Altadena area just before the pandemic the last time I was there. Lush, thick landscaping and mature trees all over. Not much or any setback. Didn't think to look for vent screens and such though at the time.

@douglasvb Yeah, as soon as the first few houses catch I imagine it turns from a brush fire to a house-forest fire.
