Fire, smoke and wind everywhere 2007-10-21 18:42:30


Three of them in the surrounding area, last I checked. It gives the entire sky an incredibly ominous red color, and it wouldn't be too out of place if a giant funnel suddenly formed in the cloud of smoke and the Riders of the Apocalypse started racing around in the air. In the meantime it's just ash everywhere and the scent of everything burning outside. Hopefully it doesn't come any closer and burn my house down.

I figured I would take some pictures, because that makes things interesting. Here's one I shot of the smoke cloud above the houses across the street.

Apocolypse?

Response to Fire, smoke and wind everywhere 2007-10-21 18:44:40


One that I took of the sun, which is that faint orange circle. I tried to take more, but I couldn't see it on the camera screen and it's completely obscured now.

Light filter much

I live in Southern California. Secondly, it's not a camera filter you faggots.

Another shot of down the street.

Is there anything on the news round your area?

Response to Fire, smoke and wind everywhere 2007-10-21 18:51:14


ominous red color? Phew, if it was blue, green, or yellow then we'd have to get ready for the zombie invasion. It's okay everyone, it's just the end of the world.

CBS2 Los Angeles The Entire frontpage has headlines saying "Fire here" and "Fire there". And I just had 2 soccer games canceled because of the air. Pretty bad shit.

Green smoke would be more interesting, however.

Another shot down the other side of the street. The sun is visible again and I'm going to go take a picture of it soon before it disappears again.

Is there strong strong winds?

cause to the right of your pic over a house a tree is basically falling over.

Response to Fire, smoke and wind everywhere 2007-10-21 19:01:10


Just for not properly explaining your topic and situation, I hope that the fire reaches your house.

At least I didn't have to post "Pics or it didn't happen"

Response to Fire, smoke and wind everywhere 2007-10-21 19:01:37


wow, that's crazy. looks like the city on this text box i'm typing on right now, with a crazy orange sky :P that pic of the sun should prove to you guys it's real, look how dull and lifeless it looks covered by all that smoke. man, that california air really is good on your lungs, isn't it?

happy halloween, rabid!

I was afraid the one next to my house was going to, but it hasn't yet. It was Windfest 07 last night and my cat was freaking out, which has carried over to today as well. There's footage on the news of planes dumping water on the fires, flying about 10 feet over trees to do so and wobbling like crazy the whole time. I'm surprised none of them have crashed yet.

Another one of the sun. It's more visible now, before I couldn't see it at all.

To ask again, and to spare my sanity, what's going on again?

HOW can a fire cause the air and surroundings to go that orange?

FIRES IN SURROUNDING AREA. SMOKE EVERYWHERE. SMOKE MAKE SKY ORANGE.

These concepts are hard to grasp. More pictures.

By white, suburban teenagers or old people. The place I live in is actually called Suburbia, which is horrible. You're not supposed to acknowledge these things so readily. Anyway, another shot taken looking over the top of my house, where I think the closest fire is. All the smoke seems to be blowing down here from that direction.

Fires tend to travel in the direction of the wind... Are you far enough away from the fire or are you ignoring an evacuation?

Also cool pics.

It's far enough away, I'm clearing out if it starts coming near here. It seems to be clearing up slightly outside, and the wind isn't as bad as it was a few hours earlier. This is the last picture I took, I'll go take more if I can see the fire or anything, which will probably be followed by me leaving.
