| Re: SCFN Notification More strike teams Needed to fight fires. this thread is obviously a separate issue, but i wanted to mention that i'd like the brush fire threads to be limited somewhat to the number of major fires in the area. i think in this case i see two large fires: 1) the gap fire, and 2) everything else up north. structure fires that involve lead recycling plants would of course be exempted, though maybe all those posts would go in one thread.  | |

| Re: SCFN Notification More strike teams Needed to fight fires. Yeah, it is tedious having a topic started for every fire that starts. Should be limited to only the fires that are out of control. The big ones. Who cares about an empty lot in Fontana that's burning?

Here is how I determine which fires to post. I get about 30 to 50 EDIS alerts per hour. the great majority of them these past two weeks have been in Northern California.
I usually get a notice via RSS Feed or EDIS emergency posting. If it smoke showing I ignore them. I usually Wait for 3 or 4 more alerts before I post what CDF or a local agency determines has the potential to explode into a major fire.
Good example; just got a LAPD EDIS alert for a two car accident with rollover and 5 major injuries on the 10 freeway. The next two CHP calls on my scanner corrected the incident. Nough said.

| Re: SCFN Notification More strike teams Needed to fight fires. said by ghostpainter  :perhaps the ones who live in Fontana where a empty lot eventually burned over 5,000 acres and several home.... I usually Wait for 3 or 4 more alerts before I post what CDF or a local agency determines has the potential to explode into a major fire. You mean like, for instance, the one couple months ago that was in the middle of built up Fontana and had absolutely no chance to spread anywhere? It was truly an empty city lot, and just because that area caught on fire years ago when it was mostly open space doesn't mean that's going to happen in 2008.
That's an example of what I mean. You don't have to report every single fire that starts. You're getting as nutty about the whole "for the good of the public" thing as Kevin the weatherboy is.

If it bothers you so much, why don't you just not read the posts? Problem solved.

| Re: SCFN Notification More strike teams Needed to fight fires. said by TwoFrogs :Ironic. There's a Lucky's -- er, Albertson's -- just down the street from us that we still refer to using the old name. Some really old timers around here still think of it as Sage's. Sage's made some killer pies. | |

| Re: SCFN Notification More strike teams Needed to fight fires. Isnt the mother company Safeway based in Nebraska, and American Foods out of Utah ownes Vons and Best Foods, or is it the other way around. And lets not forget Piggly Wiggly they own somebody else.
As for the fires I will only post those that are more than 100 acres and I have assigned units. | |

| Re: SCFN Notification More strike teams Needed to fight fires. This is a fire that has been burning for quite a while, in southern California but is so far out in the desert that it wasn't really bothering anyone.
Indians (CA-LPF-1491) 81,378 acres, 100% contained. Approximately 10000 acres of the Indians Fire total are interior islands that have continue to burn but are expected to stay within control lines. The Red Flag Warning has been cancelled effective 0500 this morning.

| i didn't mean not to post the information.. just not to start a new thread for each one. ideally, it would just be updates in one thread with a link at the bottom of each post that went to a map of some kind, either with that particular fire marked or with all the fires marked. doesn't someone have a google map with all this stuff on it?
frankly, that would be much more helpful. i don't know where have these places are anyway, and haven't a clue if their smoke will reach us, my parents, whoever. i appreciate that you're filtering out some stuff, but what's left is still noise, to me.

When I was 5 i started going with my dad who was a truck driver and I remembered where I went. then as a process server court worker, I used a map book by not using the index to find the page, I just flipped to the page of any map book and knew where I wanted to go.
I forget there are a lot of people here from somewhere else who dont know the area. I will try to remember that in the future.
