Community Profile

This community is for people living in San Diego county. As a fellow San Diegian, I will do my best to provide what information I can about local wildfires and brush fires in the area.

I know how vital it is to get information on these fires. "Where is it? How big is the fire? Is there any containment yet? Are there any evacuations being ordered for my area, etc...?" I will do my best to share what I know about fires, as they happen, and give updates as they occur.

However, THIS COMMUNITY SHOULD NOT BE DEPENDED ON AS A RELIABLE NEWS SOURCE! I am just one person. I am sharing what I know, based on what I can get from the news as well. I will also be using other reports that I am hearing from around the county, from other forums ans chat websites. I also monitor live webcams and police radio frequences, trying to get a better picture of what's actually going on. When time permits, I will attempt to post pictures and graphics I either find or put together myself. I just want to make this clear. This is a wildfire journal COMMUNITY, not a news service! No one will be keeping things up to date here while I am sleeping or at work. This is done entirely by me with my free time. I cannot promise up-to-date information, only what I can, when I can.

You are free to share what info you have, your experiences, and even pictures you've taken, as long as you are respectful and courteous to fellow readers. You may even text message me if you have breaking news that is not being reported here yet. Give me time to try to verify your information and I will try to post it here as soon as I can.

Please do not discuss politics. There are other places for that. Let's just make sure the important information on current ongoing fires is what we focus on here. Thank you.
