Glad you and yours are safe. Amazing how fast they can come up and change and how much damage they can do so fast. How close did it come this time?
During the Gap fire earlier this summer, the evacuation warning came to about 1/4 mile from my apartment, and luckily never got any closer It was visible the entire time, though; we could see the flames all the time for about a week. The Tea fire earlier this week in Montecito/Santa Barbara came maybe 1/2 mile to a mile from where my wife works, and the warnings came to the other side of the 101, just exactly the width of the highway (although that's about as good of a firebreak as you'll ever find, we weren't too worried). These fires are nerve-wrecking, glad you're safe.
