Ventura County
MOUNTAIN FIRE BURN AREA -RAIN EVENT
Ventura County Sheriff’s Emergency Services and the National Weather Service are monitoring a mild rain event expected to impact Ventura County Saturday through Monday. The current forecast calls for a significant cold front and rainfall totals between 0.1 – 0.50 inches. However, the cold air increases the chance of thunderstorms, which may potentially increase rainfall rates experienced in localized areas. Isolated intensities over recent burn areas may result in small, localized debris flows, but there is no current outlook that anticipates significant or large-scale debris flows or flooding.

😢 ‘All we could do was watch’: #Beekeeper mourns millions of #bees killed in Mountain fire
By Jenny Gold, Staff Writer
Nov. 18, 2024"On the morning the Mountain fire erupted, wind gusts were so strong in Somis that several of the sturdy wooden boxes that housed Eduardo Flores’s bee colonies had already blown over.
"Flores was watching the feed of his security cameras from home and preparing to drive over in his truck when he received a message from his brother-in-law: There was a fire close to the bee yard.
"Within an hour, all 150 boxes had been destroyed in the blaze and millions of bees were dead.
"'All we could do was watch,” said Flores, who owns #VenturaBeeRescue, a company that removes troublesome bees from people’s homes, rehabilitates the colonies, and then relocates the #pollinators to help sustain local bee populations."
[...]
"Bees serve a crucial role in pollinating native plants and crops, but their populations have been declining worldwide. Since 2007, some bee populations have fallen by more than 80%, according to research from the U.S. Forest Service, part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
"Flores quickly became a #BeeAdvocate, touring local schools, libraries and museums to educate children about the importance of bees and sharing his love for the often-feared creatures. Each spring, he brought plain white boxes to an event called #PollinatorPalooza in Ventura, where children painted them in bright colors.
"Flores said he plans to rebuild his lost boxes and restore the colonies quickly. 'They’re not going to stop and we can’t stop, either.'
"Flores has set up a GoFundMe account, where he has already raised more than $5,000 to buy new equipment."

Another good ham day today...part of a work party on South Mountain, finishing some 10GB links to several mountains as far as 54 miles away. Thankfully, very little damage to the ham gear from the #MountainFire, but there sure was plenty of ash and dust around. The fire ran right through this particular site.

The Santa Ana winds - into the 50's sustained - are driving the Mountain Fire and will continue until Thursday evening. "On the conservative side, at least 75 homes have been lost."
These are obliterated. Multi-million dollar homes in a blowtorch. There is nothing left of many structures but their chimneys.

There is now some MODIS/VIIRS heat detection data for the #MountainFire, Ventura County, CA. However, the fire is moving fast and the fire front has moved *much* further SW'ly than that satellite data.
So right now there is no reason to post a MODIS/VIIRS map and doing so might mislead people as to the fire's location and danger people in that area might be in.
