Very Dangerous Fires

There are two really dangerous fires which are moving toward the coast at a rapid pace due to extreme Santa Ana conditions and there are not nearly enough fire fighting resources to stop them.
The entire town of Ramona is under mandatory evacuation orders as of an hour ago and just now eastern Escondido is being evacuated. That is a couple of miles from Ron and Melody's house and it includes over 10,000 homes. A bunch of smaller communities are in danger or already have burned. When it is over it probably will be worse than the Cedar fire of four years ago.
By morning the fire should be only 5 to 10 miles from us. If it reaches west of I-15 then it will come through to Rancho Santa Fe and all the eucalyptus trees here means RSF will be toast.
