Re: [californiadisasters] 9pm update on Meyers and Creek...



The Rye Fire does remind one of the 2003 Simi Fire in regards to path.

Yes, the real threat is from the Rye fire, not from the Thomas fire, but what
many are talking about is the Thomas fire. The problem is that you can see
the flames at times from the Thomas fire from Simi Valley and people don't
know the distance.

I can't see any smoke from the Rye fire currently, but that does not mean much
as a change in the wind will quickly change that.

In the past, that is exactly the same path as another fire (Rye).
