Updates: 1 in 8 California Fire Fighters are now battling the blaze.
Northern California extends Northern Fire Season.
This is good for SOCAL, since now seasonal fire fighters who would leave the work force, will stay on longer, freeing up more personnel to be sent down South.
Good job Northern California!

The devastation down in Souther California must be enormous.
My mom and my little brothers live in Oceanside, which seems to be safe at the moment.
The devastation down there must be unfathomable.
My mom and 3 of my little brothers live in Oceanside, which is as of today fire-locked. There's no place for them to escape if the fire spreads more to the coast.
The northern route through I-5 is now blocked.
Camp Pendleton (15 miles north of Ocean Side) is burning. 6,000 acres so far, and only 10% contained. So that is out.
The eastern route is a no go, that takes you straight into the fire zone.
The southern route to San Diego is also blocked. There is a large fire burning just a few miles off the highway as well. That's also about 15 miles south of Oceanside.
My Mom says she has started packing the car. Her neighbors are doing the same.
They are already voluntarily evacuating... but where will they go? Probably to a nearby shelter.
My thoughts are with them!
