Well that got way fucking worse overnight.
Just chatted with my sister (who's outside LA), we looked at the maps together, and she called my parents to gently talk them into packing and leaving their house now before the evacuation orders get to them. FUCK this is so hard to be far from family and totally unable to help.

I'll note that their house is actually a couple miles away from the mountains, surrounded by houses in a dense LA suburban neighbourhood. But it looks from news reports like that's what's burning now.
Stay safe, LA people. Get out way before the fires get to you.

Most of my family is in LA, and I lived in Pasadena/Altadena for years and loved it.
I am not going to sleep well tonight. I can do literally nothing about the fires, and nothing to help anyone down there, but I can't stop watching the updates come in...

@angusm Ok, but what if I ACTUALLY need to do all these things with my goats?
@sundogplanets @angusm oh good, you’re here Prof. I was just about to forward this to you but checked first.
