In California, insurers are busy cancelling homeowner policies. It’s common. My uncle in the Oakland hills had to quick find another insurer.
This is a bad time to entertain the temper tantrums of no information voters.

More and bigger wildfires in California. Higher temperatures and less rain. If Kamala would have elected there would have been wildfires as well but at least some hope that steps will be taken to protect the climate. Under a new Trump administration I see no hope. L.A. is burning from all sides now. The famous Hollywood sign is surrounded by fires. https://www.latimes.com/wildfires-map/ The wildfires will probably come to Santa Fe too in the next years. Like the ones in NM last year, only worse. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_New_Mexico_wildfires -J. -------- Original message -------- From: steve smith <sasm...@swcp.com <mailto:sasm...@swcp.com> > Date: 1/8/25 5:52 PM (GMT+01:00) To: friam@redfish.com <mailto:friam@redfish.com> Subject: Re: [FRIAM] L.A. wildfires A good friend who grew up in Pacific Palisades recently moved his elderly parents to an assisted living. As it unfolds, they are on the very edge of the acutely threatened zone, holding on for evacuation orders (at least the facility will "facilitate" that as it would not have been reasonable at all in their 90s to self-evacuate if they were still in the family home. The family home, built in the 60s was purchased by a private developer (after much negotiation) to surely be razed and replaced by a mcMansion. The move was 6 months ago and the home sale closed the day before our elections (by design). My friend is in HI right now (visiting Kilauea and Waipio) but his brother lives in the LA area, able to attend to the parents anxiety more directly. The family home has not been engulfed yet, but if/when it does, it may actually increase the value of the property to new owner (the anticipated razing being done on insurance/FEMA's nickle?).... but he just watched the high school he attended (70s) burn to the ground on TV. <snark> I think Donald Trump is about to announce that this is the price of LA and CA being a "Liberal Hellhole" and that if they would just "rake their forests" these things wouldn't happen. Part of the Liberal/Chinese hoax about Climate Change and extreme weather? If Kamala had been elected the fires would be much worse! At least it wasn't triggered by a Cybertruck loaded with fireworks, (legal) firearms, and other accelerants blown up by a MAGA supporter. If we owned Greenland and Canada we could pipe their water (or even snowpack/glaciers) down to dump on the fires... maybe the Boring Company is already tunneling under middle America to facilitate this?</snark> SimTable is probably looped in with the myriad evacuation/fire-fighting activities? I'm betting there may be a Pixelated Pile O' Sand on Lena street in the shape of the LA hills and valleys? On 1/8/25 5:17 AM, Jochen Fromm wrote: > I hope everybody is OK in L.A.? Especially Russ ?
