More than 15,000 people forced to evacuate. In the west, In the west, the Grass Valley fire had burned 1,000 acres and destroyed 113 homes and businesses, but fire officials said it was 30% contained. About 10 miles east, the Slide fire had burned 4,000 acres and more than 200 homes. Firefighters worried that the wind could blow the fires together.

Ken Larson, a fire behavior analyst with the U.S. Forest Service, said, however, that he thought the worst was over. The winds are expected to shift Thursday and Friday, coming from the west rather than the northeast, increasing humidity levels and reducing the fire threat.

Grass Valley Fire Updates:

LAKE ARROWHEAD – The fire’s western flank has been significantly slowed due to the winds “dying down.” Officials while still concerned with the fire reaching Dart Canyon (Eastern Crestline, Lake Gregory) to the West, they are continuing to watch for spot fires and gas line fires in the burned areas. The Santa Ana Winds have died down and we should return to our usual on-shore flow to cool things down and bring the humidity back up from 12% to normal levels, about 30%. Mandatory evacuation remains in effect from Lake Arrowhead to Crestline. Valley of Enchantment and Cedar Pines Park are still under voluntary evacuation.

Mountains Community Hospital is also being evacuated.

Northeast of Running Springs, in Green Valley Lake, a small mountain town of about 750 people, at least 55 homes surrounding the picturesque alpine lake were destroyed.

  1. I’m not going to lie, you have lost me right here. I know that you just meant well and you definitely know what youre talking about, but I cant say that I get where youre coming from. If you want folks to fully grasp your points, you need to think of the other side of the argument, as well. Youve got a wealth of knowledge, Ill give you that. But, rather frankly, you turned me off together with your tone.

  2. Pretty cool post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have really liked reading your blog posts. Anyway I’ll be subscribing to your blog and I hope you post again soon!

  4. Crazy Stuff! There is so much to learn about e-cigs Oh Well, its Sunday and I might as well get learning. LOL!

  5. A subject close to my heart thanks, do you have a Facebook group for your site?

    I apologize for the possible off-topic Folks, but could you inform me which web hosting company you are using right now I have a problem because my current web hosting company bluehost.com is kicking me off. They say that our website is using too many server resources. But our website only gets 200 visitors per week. Anyway, what would be your recommendations? Are you happy with your web host? I am checking LCN at the moment, but is it real that they can provide unlimited disk space? I have contacted them and they say something like 500gb disk drive costs only $10 per month, so if some day we will start running out of disk space we will simply add a new 1000GB drive so can continue updating.. What do you think about it? Any ideas and web host name suggestions are much appreciated.

  7. hey there, this might be little offtopic, but i am hosting my site on hostgator and they will suspend my hosting in 4days, so i would like to ask you which hosting do you use or recommend?
