What’s transfixing (is that a word?) is how *fast* it’s moving.

Don’t forget everyone, 500+ acres are burning uncontrolled at Castaic right now. There was a fire at Porter Ranch/Northridge, but it’s contained around 20 acres.

As far as I know, they got nothing out of there before the fire.

Flying embers....new term to me....Fire is spotting....embers cause Fire to start in very scattered locations...very tough to fight this kind of fire...

This fire is hellbent on destruction.

Watching that castle burn on one of the feeds was just heartbreaking.

The nearest shorline to Pepperdine is south. It is confusing. If you look on the map you can see where the coast of CA curves. If you stand, looking out to sea, on the Malibu beach you are actually looking south.

What terrible losses... I had no idea...:(

Sad to think that the Malibu Presbyterian congregation stood helplessly by as their church burned, how sad.

KFI says part of Hughes Research Laboratory Malibu is on fire

Power's out through most of Malibu

This fire was caused by a transformer or some high-power lines. Not arson.
