Growing up, Figuroa to Sierra Madre ridge was my “High Sierras.” This and the last big fire, and the one that burned Rancho Allegro, have been heartbreaks. Best wishes and safety to the tough firefighters facing the heat, fire, ticks, and poison oak.

Mr. Safechuck when asked what was his "biggest concern", he made it clear that his greatest concern is the crew. Good man!!!

Where's the air tankers to help put this fire out

[@andreabontempo643]

They just let these fires burn now. Getting the land burned down so they can build their SMART cities

[@Mrbfgray]

What's shown here is mostly healthy cleansing fire, essential to these lands.

[@starwarsunfiltered7848]

They couldn't use the tankers on every day due to weather variabilities, but oftentimes they still use the choppers.

NO WATER PLANES?

I am praying for you. May God bless you and keep you safe.

Hasn't this area experienced recent fires? Over the same acreage?

[@starwarsunfiltered7848]

I'm not sure about smaller or more recent fires, but the Zaca Fire in 2007 was the closest in size and area to where the Lake Fire is now.

This is a prime example of why more people need to get more prepared and think about "Emergency Preparedness Management" for both your home and vehicles. I am a TH-camr under my Full-Name with the same profile picture as this post with 46 videos covering 26 different category topic subjects sharing my personal knowledge and experiences with others to help others improve their adult lives if I can. I've got videos on building yourself a high quality 24-72 Hour Survival Bug Out Bags, Home and Vehicle Preparedness and Readiness advice videos, several Financial Literacy advice videos, a dozen Cooking Creation Recipes videos, and more!

[@bajaboy27]

As of Tuesday ? Lol it's Thursday though

[@starwarsunfiltered7848]

This is because KEYT is always slow on their TH-cam uploads. You'll often see weather forecasts for the weekend posted three days later on Tuesday.

I think this Captain got promoted because of his last name.
