For those of you who don't know the most common type of fire we have here in San Diego County here are some pictures of the Valley Fire 2020. Cleveland National Forest is primarily dense brush which burns like crazy when something ignites it, especially in September hot weather. Stupid people. arsonists, utility poles, not climate change, are the main causes of fires here, despite what Governor Newsom says. I talked to to some Fireman today who still watching the area for awhile after the fire is contained and they say we rarely have lightning fires because the lightning here is usually accompanied by heavy rains, and it usually torches trees not brush and can be usually be quenched easier. Yearly backcountry fires have been normal here for my entire life. And I will be 70 soon.
