This is ugly. Please send your best wishes for all.
Having worked over 35 years as a Surveyor in SoCal the area is always ripe for disaster and high winds, fire, congestion plus narrow canyon roads exacerbate the problem.
Snowstorms ( everywhere ), hurricanes, fires, earthquakes etc. are natural of course but as society becomes more dense the impact is exponentially greater.
I moved to the hills 12 years ago to get away from the Rat Race. I love that but tragedy struck a few years ago during the Erskine Fire losing over 600 homes in a small community.
Please have sympathy even if it's California and multi- million dollar homes in that neighborhood.
