I will just focus on the Central CA coast if there is an San Francisco/Bay Area thread already.
I will do a wildfire update very soon. I am working on graphics and may be finished in the coming days.

I has Comcast since 2003. I had digital cable for a while, then dropped it knowing how increasingly expensive it would get. Now Comcast runs my cable TV, internet, and digital phone service. $99 is the introductory offer for all three, but I know that figure will multiply out of control.
