Southern California Fires, O …
Title Southern California Fires, Oct 26, 2003 (Western View of Smoke)
Abstract Several massive wildfires were raging across southern California over the weekend of October 25, 2003. Whipped by the hot, dry Santa Ana winds that blow toward the coast from interior deserts, at least one fire grew 10,000 acres in just six hours. Moving northwest to southeast along the coast, the first cluster of red dots is a combination of the Piru, Verdale, and Simi Incident Fires. The next cluster, to the east of Los Angeles, is the Grand Prix (west) and Old (east) Fires. To their south is the Roblar 2 Fire, next is the Paradise Fire, then the massive Cedar Fire, whose thick smoke is completely overshadowing the coastal city of San Diego, finally at the California-Mexico border is the Otay Fire. At least 13 people have lost their lives because of these fires, which officials are reporting were caused by carelessness and arson. Thousands have been evacuated across the region and hundreds of homes have been lost.
