"Get Out Now! The Fire Could Burn All the Way to the Coast"

UPDATE 11:14am PST: I have been comparing LA stations' news coverage and I am most impressed with ABC7's coverage. You can watch live here.

Here is the fire image from 11:07am PST.

For my friends in the Great Plains, think of the aftermath of a large fire as the same as the aftermath of a giant, F-5 tornado like Greensburg. Everything is gone.

9am PST fire image. The black is heated ground and the white is a fierce fire. 

Smoke from the fires near Malibu. 

If you have friends/relatives in the area, please call to make sure they are aware and that they leave. Thank you.
