What is going on in Harmony Grove? Last I heard the Witch fire was moving into that area, can anyone confirm?
Why do you show nothing about the Fallbrook fires? I live there and have been evacuated but now I can find very little information about what is going on there. Everyone seems to be covering all the fires except Fallbrook, but when I left yesterday several fires were burning out of control and the whole town had been evacuated. That seems news worthy to me.
This is the best fire map I have seen. It's an official agency map -- from 430 this morning. -Kuro

When can we please go and see our
place in Ramona. We are so great-
full to the firefighters and Gov.
Swatrzneger, Our mayor our prayers are with them for the great job they are doing. Thank you, Thank
you. We are between Julian and Ramona, Hwy. 78. We are patient and
waiting. Only when it is safe. God
Bless all of you watching out for
us.
Our son is a firefighter at the witch creek fire which we just heard has merged with the pamoocha fire. we heard that 12 firefighters have been injured. Does anyone know how to find out their names? We have no contact with our son or his battalion/engine company and no way of knowing if he's one of the injured. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you who have been or are being evacuated. Our blessing to the firefighters who are putting their lives on the line to save all of you and your homes. God Bless, we are thinking of all of you here in the SF Bay Area.
