Live updates: Brush fire burns in Pacific Palisades as Santa Ana winds blast Southern California - Live video at link

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
These fires have very serious potential. The Eaton Fire - should it explode and head East has the potential to impact very large population areas. And a northerly explosion of wind could send the Pallisades fire into overdrive. The next 48 hours are going to be incredibly important.

aerial stuff is being kept on the ground- is that why they are unable to use the ocean water?
They can't send up air support because the winds are whipping sideways.

Lady on TV just said that they can't go in anything over 55 mph.

Spotter planes are just little dudes, and the big bombers need to be able to come in low.

It's just not safe.

Edit: This is a pretty good map of what's currently on fire:

That aside it's fucking crazy how on a day like today, some random homeless schizo with a Gatorade bottle full of gas and a book of cheap matches could cause something that can bring one of the largest fucking cities on Earth to its knees. Anymore I sort of just assume that most wildfires start as a result of arson. If leftoid weirdos or CHYNA ever decides to take up that tactic we might be in big fucking trouble.

I'm also assuming that this is due to poor forest management which the state of California does all of the time. Between the highly flammable invasive eucalyptus everywhere and refusing to clean up deadfall and debris because it "alters the environment in an unnatural way man", the state government remains responsible every fucking time this happens.
California has been like this for Millenia which is why you didn't have Indians living there - too dangerous. The same reason most coasts on the southern eastboard weren't built up for centuries - too dangerous (storms, hurricanes). The only "management" is to eliminate every living tree and that is not practical. Most fires aren't intentional.

Take any area on Earth with vegetation and deprive it of moisture and fires rule. There are plenty of areas in the USA Today that used to have forests and no longer do because eventually the fires extinguished the forests for good.

I've been in Australia and been to the areas there before those fires took hold there; and I have been in California also, if the forests get dry there is no management, just impending and inevitable doom because wether it be an accident or lightening strike, there isn't much to be done.

As an example take the Appalachian Mountains, if you'd deny the region moisture for a significant period and those caught fire, you can forget management of anything and just sit back and watch 10,000 square miles burn with zero ability to control it.

One could intentionally light a dozen fires in the forests of NC and within a fews hours or so they would be extinguished easily. do that in Los Angeles and you could kill thousands of people, animals and property.
 
wow.. 80mph? One nasty setup for fire. Oh boy I guess. Thoughts and prayers to kiwis in the area and or their families.



"Thermal, California" :story:

I'd be most worried about the Hurst and Eaton fires since the SA winds come down the mountains north-to-south and a little bit west.

You may be able replace all trees with cork oaks and other fire-resistant trees made for enviroments that do get often hit by wildfires, but that's not even close to a remedy at all, the most effective method to calm these fires California has right now is the usual: have the local liberal globo schlomos sacrifice the genitals of a couple dozen white children to appease Lucifer.
 
Why is the goddamn mayor of a US city in *ghana*?
I'll never understand why mayors, senators, and other relatively minor US government critters get themselves involved in countries on the other side of the fucking world.

Charlie Wilson comes to mind as an example.
Because she's a nigger politician doing political nigger things
 
Watched this lady trying to save her parents' home, they just canceled their fire insurance a few months ago. CA's screwed.
I feel for ordinary people but when this is all the media is posting:

All I have is schadenfreude for SoCal carpetbaggers; you reap what you sow. Besides they have insurance, remember? This a peaceful but fiery protest by our Creator.

Natives knew how to manage and set controlled fires, the state of California refuses to do it. I watched the Oakland Hills from San Francisco go up right before I left across the bay; we could feel the heat and had hot ash occasionally hit the pier and that's Northern California. A desert area is far more susceptible to this kind of fire. They know but will never learn.

It lets them pretend they're more important than they really are.

It lets them take bribes extend their influence.

They feel more loyalty to what they see as downtrodden nations than America.
 
Hope everyone who laughed and sneered at East Palestine and Hurricane Helene are having a good time
The aid is going to mysteriously be there for California when it failed to be at either of those sites or Hawaii.

Good thing California doesn't insist on full lawns.

Oh wait. I was thinking of Las Vegas and Phoenix.
I've been in Australia and been to the areas there before those fires took hold there; and I have been in California also, if the forests get dry there is no management, just impending and inevitable doom because wether it be an accident or lightening strike, there isn't much to be done.
Controlled fires have been a thing for millennia for a reason, but those are verboten in California.
