I remember my first reaction was "what's left to burn?" but the problem is the first fire killed all trees but left the dead husks standing, and now they're poised to go up like kindling. And of course this doesn't even factor in the potential damage from looming earthquakes.

I know it's easier said than done to simply pull up stakes and relocate, but at this point people who stay in that area are like folks moving in the Amityville Horror house, ignoring the booming demonic voice telling you to GET OUT.

So being an ol sailor can a ship stand a hurricane?
