It is 101F outside my window.

In Carlsbad, a beach front community halfway between
Los Angeles an San Diego and home to wrec members
is in trouble, so hopes that qualifies as on topic.

Serious wind driven brush fires, fueled by Santa Ana winds
(offshore) 20-30 MPH sustained with 45 MPH gusts has
closed both north and south sides of I-5, has set several
structures on fire, and evacuated 11,000 people.

The temperatures (100F) and the winds are making firefighting
efforts very difficult.

Many buildings have had to be left to burn since there has been
no way to fight the fire attacking them.

Lego land has been evacuated.

This one is going to make the 6:00 PM news.

It didn't make it on the news here.
Maybe the 6:30 National news.
