While at least the freeway is open now, it still looks pretty ominous seeing this giant block of fire in the middle of the map between work and home. I suppose I’m lucky neither place has burned to the ground and I’m just complaining about first world problem. But I’m still concerned commuting is going to be hell for a while. My normal commute through the canyons is completely gone for weeks if not months. I should be able to at least take the PCH out to the not burnt roads eventually, but that will still be a bit seeing as the fire is still ongoing.
This bridge is smack in the middle of my commute and marks a choke point of sorts for the various canyons that I normally have used. Even once the fires are out and there is some sense of normalcy, that bridge is still going to be a pile of rubble. That might take a while to fix..

S o other than that one bridge, you are saying this would be a great time to hotshoe Mu lhol land? I cannot remember having such a major part of a metropolitan area in the United States be entirely on fire...

That’s what I’m thinking! Could be some fun if I come down for Radwood. The fires will definitely be out by then

Your commute might be hell, but burning to death would probably be a lot more like hell. Maybe tear down the road and plant some more sequoias in its place to help mitigate the threat of massive fires?
Or we just keep doing what we’re doing. Seems to be working out well for us.

But if burning jet fuel can’t melt steel, how does wood manage it? /s
Really that’s pretty brutal. I’ve dealt with bad smoke from distant fires the last couple summers, and that was bad enough. I really can’t imagine what it would be like closer to the fire, or worse, having lost my home or friends and family to it.

I mean I could but most of my work is in person. I'd just be highly unproductive at home.
