SORRY — OUT OF POCKET ON LOCAL FIREWATCH
It appears that there is another local fire and there is a suspect arsonist being investigated.
We are looking at 5,000 structures—entire communities and support infrastructure—destroyed and billions of dollars in damages.
Looters are descending on the burn areas before the National Guard arrives to relieve police who will return to crime suppression rather than evacuation assistance.
BTW: This is severe weather and NOT climate change The insurance companies cut a deal with the State of California to project future losses based on climate change
Hope everybody’s safe and healthy in this acrid air.
We are so screwed.
