All day, it's been a news blackout. People who don't have the internet have to just hope that a.m. News radio reception will be good enough to find out what's going on. The entertainment and sports shows have been on all day, but not even a news crawler from any of our crack-news teams. Thousands of us are trying to find out where the wind is headed and whether we need to prep to evacuate, but the dearth of news means we have to fo outside and stick a finger in the air to figure it out on our own. Unbelievable. Is there a reason local news coverage of the fire sucks? All day, it’s been a news blackout.

It is going to be a hard to breath morning. Just a heads up: At 1:30am, the wind has done a 180. The smoke has reached Highland Park and is headed WSW. It is going to be a hard to breath morning.
