This morning I’ve been keeping track of the fires in San Diego. I’ve compiled a list of a few resources that might be helpful:
- Live news coverage of the San Diego fires from NBC
- San Diego Tribune fire blog
- Another local San Diego blogger’s live accounts
… And, last but not least, I’ll be twittering the news updates on the San Diego fires as I hear them.
Update: Added a new map from KBPS.

Or, you could rely on KPBS or their twitter feed, which is probably a better bet.

If you can get KBPS on a good stream, yes, they’re great. I haven’t been able to, unfortunately. But thanks for the twitter feed. That’s a good source too.

Police/fire radio exchange provides interesting clues as well, I linked to couple of Internet scanner sites on my page, http://palacionews.blogspot.com/

We have the windows close because of the contamination outside. Do you think that is it a bad idea to turn the A/C on? Thank you.

The media and health people are all saying AC is ok to have on because it has filters on it.
