Mt. Diablo Fire
Waking up before dawn this morning with hopes of catching a nice sunrise over the low fog, I instead discovered this apocalyptic vision of Mt. Diablo burning over the East Bay. This wildfire started yesterday afternoon and has grown at a frightening pace to cover over 1500 acres overnight. I believe it has doubled in size again by this afternoon.
The flames crawling up the mountain are visible here from San Franicisco, over 30 miles away. Quite the opposite of the peaceful foggy morning I had in mind. Best of luck to those fighting the fire and those affected by it over there.
