Fire, take 2
First, a couple of pics from a buddy who lives near the Harris fire area.

Oh well!
after
At 7pm, there were still roughly 45,000 people under evacuation orders.
The fires burned roughly 540 square miles here in San Diego County. That's roughly the same as: 23 Manhattan Islands , 80% of Singapore Island, or 1/10th of the land mass of Northern Ireland. It's crazy to think of the amount of land burned compared to a couple of well known land masses!
The death toll is remarkably under 10 and injuries are limited to a few dozen.
