I live off of Kirkwood, so I tried to take a "long-cut" at Gould and weave my way back over to Kirkwood. About 30 cars ended up having to turn around on the extremely narrow Gould to let one of the fire trucks pass. Nerve-racking! And definitely a little peek into all the bad things that could happen traffic-wise if there ever was a serious fire in the Canyon.

That said, I do have many clients who do. Since there is limited parking in their neighborhood, I might actually need to cancel appointments during an alert. Similarly, visits to friends and family might also be effected, so it pays to stay informed whether you live in an effected Red Flag Alert area or not.
