[californiadisasters] Needles Incident - SBC

Currently there is a wind-driven fire running through the heavily-vegetated Colorado Riverbottom in the Needles area (or as locals not in Needles call it, "Needless").

Both SoCalFire and Southern-California-Fire-Notifications groups are giving good updates from Chris Nichols and here on the Hotlist is a thread to follow:

Last check the fire was running in the wind at over 100 acres and jumping road.

Yesterday there was a fire in the National City area in San Diego County.

Last month saw a bad wind-driven fire in Big Pine in the Owens Valley that destroyed homes.

The 2011 Fire Season is underway!
