Affected By The Fires?!?

[jtrey]

Admin feel free to move this where it belongs... I am close to lake Isabella and all the fire keep getting so close I woke up this morning and there is ash on my girls and the sky is super dark. I have been watching the smoke for the last few days and was wondering if anyone on here has been hit hard by the fires this year? This shit is scary esp. since we just moved. I am not used to this shit.

You shouldn't have to worry to much unless you have nugs they are landing on. I live in the valley and I'm getting ash on my plants as well

Oh lol, I see. I wouldn't be to worried about the plants either.

Cali is turning into he'll on earth, 8 wildfires and that's just the giant ones. We had a fire start and burn for 4 miles along the river about a month ago

The eskrine fire got crazy close to our spot .. we had burn patches in the grass and the entire mountian looks roasted... kern river?

I think building a moat and a drawbridge to your house would solve these issues.

Alligators in the moat wouldn't hurt either.

My buddy is at your fire with his dozer right now,he was on pilot fire first then sent to blue cut fire and now to yours.Think he left Thurs morning and yours was bout 9000 acres,the two burning here were about 40,000 each I think and its not even fire season yet!

yeah the fire fighters are kicking ass this year. I last read it was up to 14k acres.

The fire is crazy. Pretty soon this whole place is going to be one big fire. San Bernardino just looks like one big shit hole of smoke sitting in the valley

I am used to it, but you never get 'used' to it, ya dig? So I had this problem last year with my girls during the Butte Fire, and I kept everything hosed off. It doesn't get all the ashes, but it can help. Otherwise you might want to consider setting up a light shade cloth to help catch most of the ashfall.

Do you have our exit strategy planned? Important stuff packed and ready to go literally at a moment's notice?

This is a picture from the 18th ... now the sky is super smokey all over the valley but here you can see the smoke in the distance

This drought Cali is experiencing must come to and end soon. Half the state is a tinderbox. pray for more rain and years of good snowpack to turn things around.

If your worried about ash on your plants just blow it off with a leaf blower.
