Is there anybody here giving eyewitness accounts of the situation regarding the Witch Creek fire (Rancho Bernardo, etc)? My elderly mom is on the west side of that one (and a bit north—by Encinitas Ranch). I just saw the county supervisor say that they didn’t have enough firefighters, that it was zero percent contained, and they may not be able to stop it until it reaches the ocean. I’m trying to figure out if she’s threatened.
