San Diego Wildfires Update
- 0 Comments
After Blogging the San Diego fires the threat has subsided by us, but has gotten worse for others. I have since unpacked our bags.
For a while the fire was moving so fast, I was getting pretty worried. The most houses that were destroyed in San Diego county were in the 92127 zip code, we are in 92126. It was burning about 10 miles away. With strong winds 25-50 miles per hour, it could of reached us easily. Rancho Bernardo (92127 zip) was definitely hit the hardest. President Bush even took some time to visit the destruction.
The total cost, so far, is estimated at more than 1 billion dollars, and thats just in San Diego, not including the rest of California.
It’s amazing how much life seems to pause in a disaster like this. The Cedar fires weren’t that long ago, it feels close to the same. People going to the grocery store wearing surgeons masks, etc.
I know a lot of fellow bloggers were effected directly or indirectly, I hope everyone is okay. I was glad to hear that Nate Whitehills family was safe as well. Thanks for everyone’s concern about me and my family.
