Default Anyone affected by the fire?

I was at my cousins house down in tustin, ca...It got REALLY bad. People were evacuating left and right. The fire was breathing down hard.

Let me say, I've NEVER experienced anything like that. To see people go crazy running around everywhere, cops all over the place, firetrucks blaring down...It was surreal...

I could barely breathe at one point the smoke was so bad. I've never been in that kind of environment before...That smoke from fire kills.

I'm down in that area quite often and see all kinds of fixed up Lexus'...I hope everyone is okay!!

I'm more inland (Mira Mesa) and we're not really affected here. Most of what's going on is pretty much east and northeast of us.

I hope everyone stays safe out there.

I hope that the winds calm down a bit.

It's bad enough that the fires are spreading and destroying land/homes. I would hate to see firemen and civilians injured by the fires.

Yeah down here in La Jolla it is hard to breathe outside. Over 14,000 acres are burnt all around, and yes, they shut down UCSD.

Indirectly by all the ashes but not like people whose house are affected

Be safe everyone and keep your little ones indoor

Be careful with opening your car door. Hold on to the door handles-you don't want your door to fly open and smack the car next to you!

Try not to park under a tree especially if those branches will look like it'll come crashing on your car

I think one other member lives in Rancho Penasquitos also...with the black GS?
Anyways, there is a voluntary evacuation for people living north of Freeway 56 and west of 15.
13 homes have burned in RB on the west side of 15, a fire in San Marcos ...rental house is being evacuated.
Not to mention all the smoke going through the cracks in the doors and windows BIG clean up job after.
The poor Lex is sitting outside getting ashed on
