Little Caesars be like: you coming into work today.
Me: there's a evacuation
Little Little Caesar: sooo coming in late?

How did this fire start! That’s the story everyone wants to hear!

[davidhart]

Sounds terrible but I mostly care about the poor animals that will perish.

Why not learn from the fires we have had over the years. We need to come up with something that will take care of these fires fast. I really hope California Firefighters are not hurt in this fire and all of the animals and the people get out safe. We need to get something done about these fires every year.

All of these fires ... "You will own nothing and You will be happy" ....

How sus that Placer county has a fire after finding Kiely with so many unanswered questions about her.

[russellrustin]

Fire is now moving up the canyon toward french meadow

[kds]

I feel horrible for the people being affected by the fires.

[toddmurat]

None of these fires are from the climate. Makes you wonder.

[sandrahamilton]

I also worry about all the little innocent helpless animals that don't understand what's going on or which way to run it just really breaks my heart 💔

[holyarmageddon]

Is it me or when she started naming the cities, it sounded like an appetizer menu from BWW

[CharlesVanNoland]

I just don't understand what kind of losers start these fires. It's unreal. They really need to just block all traffic out to these places when it's hot out, it's just not worth it.

[finchman]

You mean El Dorado County not El Dorado Hills. Let's hope the fire doesn't approach El Dorado Hills and environs.

[dorothydromgoole]

Um, does anyone know why this fire is called the Mosquito Fire? Just wondering.

[great]

Why am I not surprised that a ton of pg&e equipment is located in the same place the fire started. Recall newsome - cancel pg&e

[CarloRegadasGuitar]

Ok, I'll ask, what is a "mosquito fire"?

[joletty]

Yeah, but my question is, who or what started THIS fire?!!! 😎🤔😤😲

[tomcollins]

Started by a meth lab¿¿¿¿
Just a guess from East Texas lake area.
