Traffic & Fire Update...."Blessings from the Devil" Keeping Firefighters Busy

Arnold, CA....Traffic & Fire Update...."Blessings from the Devil" Keeping Firefighters Busy! As my mom used to say..."Thunderstorms in the summer are blessings from the Devil". What she meant by that was that any blessings from the precipitation from the thunderstorms were always outweighed by the costs and energy spent to take care of the fires created. This morning proved that old adage multiple times. There were Four fires this morning that kept crews busy. Below are details from CAL FIRE TCU..
