Nice fire in Claremont

Anyone have any current info on the fire that's
nearest to Claremont, CA, specifically the Claremont
colleges? It's not looking so good from the road, but
we're not seeing any evacuation orders at present.

Nevertheless, scared me nearly sober.

Moment, I'll find you a webpage. Vrable posted a link to one a few hours ago.

Make "thermal MODIS" visible

Zoom in a lot until it becomes useful.

It was about 8 miles away last I looked.

It's about 15 miles away from us right now. We're keeping our eyes glued on the news for the evacuation order.

Votania says that due to the fires there, the LAx is limiting from both ends due to the smoke. It should clear up by tomorrow. She says it should be ok.

Later!
