So far so good: the wind shifted slightly this morning, pushing the fire to the west, towards Diamond Bar. Good for us, not so good for them. As a result, we ended up staying put for the day (except for a quick trip to the emergency vet for an insect bite or sting and a swollen dog face, but that's a different story), but ready to take off if the winds shift back. That remains a real possibility, so we continue to monitor the news, as well as the view outside, for the latest developments.
Here's a little timelapse movie I put together of the fire, going from about 9:00 yesterday morning to 3:00 this afternoon. The images come from a local webcam a couple of miles from where I live.
You can see that the air in Chino Hills remained pretty clear for most of both days as the wind kept the smoke from dispersing over us. However, just in the last couple of hours, we've finally gotten that familiar smoky haze that comes during wildfire season. Of course, that signals a shift in the wind, so who knows what comes next...
