I live in the South Bay area so I am not in any areas that can burn down. There is a lot of haze in the sky and is blocking some of the sunlight. Also there is ash falling even here, allthough it is not that much.
I think I live in La Jolla. Or maybe its Torrey Pines. There's a street around here called Genessee and Torrey Pines North. I'm on the UCSD campus. I'm a freshman and I moved in on Sept. 20th or so. I am new to this area.
Yes that is La Jolla, I live on a canyon about 5 minutes from UCSD. We have to be prepared if anything catches in the canyon. Lots of smoke and ash around...

I dont know about where you other guys are, but over here, the smoke is ten times thicker then yesterday. Going outside makes me cough. The only safe place is in my room, and I've got a fan going at full speed. The common area also has a smokey smell to it because it comes in from under our three doors.

Well, Theben's okay. They're still in Arizona and supposedly he'll be going home on Wednesday.
Most of the flights into and out of southern California have been cancelled due to the extreme smoke and ash creating low visability conditions. I still see the occational Cessna flying so it must just be the commercial airlines have a take no chances with safety approach while the small guys land or take off as they please.
My friend flew in this morning from San Jose. He went home to visit his family this weekend and he said that it was weird flying through all of these columns of smoke.

If you live in South Bay then why didn't you go to the San Diego 'poly meet? We had peole drive all the way from Los Vegas and now I find there were people in SD who didn't come.

I must have missed the notice because I don't come onto Apolyton every day.

Ok, you're a newbie. We had the poly meet last summer so you weren't living here. La Jolla is nice but you need to drive around and check the rest of the city out because unlike other cities San Diego has many very distinct parts to it and going from one section to another is almost like going to a whole other city. Plus we have a HUGE amount of protected park land in the county. National forests, state parks, country parks, game preserves, open space preserves and stuff like that which cover everything from beaches, to tidal lagoons, to the coastal plane, to the foothills, to the mountains, to the inland valleys, to the deserts.
According to the US Geological Survey San Diego county is the most ecologically diverse county in the US. We get 90 inches of rain per year in the Cuyamacas and less then 3 inches per year in some part of the Carrizo badlands and everything in between plus we have nearly half of southern California's remaining coastal wetlands and 1/3 of the remaining open grassland. This is a great place so make sure you get out and explore San Diego.

Do you leave near Tecolote Canyon right off of the 52 freeway? For a while they were afraid the fire would go through Scipps and Clairmonte then follow Tecolote Canyon all the way to La Jolla. That would have meant the fire would have burned everything from Ramona (in the mountains) to La Jolla (by the sea). Right now they're saying a total of 130,000 acress have burned and 180 houses are gone.
Well, we all passed through the night ok in Lakeside. Ash is covering my bf's car and it gets hard to breathe when you go outside. Hell, it's hard to breathe IN the house, even with the air conditioner off. THe sky is a bizarre shade of orange and grey. ...kinda like a perpetual sunset. It was nice to have a day off of work, even though i'm going to loose pay most likely.
It smells like a barbeque...so guess what the bf wanted last night for dinner? BBQ ribs.
I wonder if the roads will be open for people to get to work tomorrow. Any word?

Yay. Class just got cancelled for Tuesday. They are thinking about cancelling it on Wednesday also. I was about to go camping this weekend in one of the national parks. Good thing I didnt.

DM: I just went up to 7-11 to buy some beer and I spent about 15 minutes talking to several police officers who'd been using the store as a stagging area. Apparently, the cops had arrested a half dozen hispanic men in their late teens last night for looting homes in the evacuated areas so now the cops have really clamped down hard in Scripps, Tierra Santa, Clairmonte, and the other areas effected by the fire.
I wouldn't bet upon the roads being reopened until this fire is put all the way out.
