I was briefly <a href="http://twitter.com/BrianHumphrey/statuses/811120349" rel="nofollow">out of town</a> and must admit it strange to watch television in the Centennial State, with a temp of 22F and a foot of snow on the ground, to see wildfires (albeit small) beginning to take foothold in our beloved City. @agentprice, There was indeed <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/LAFD_ALERT/browse_thread/thread/d8796df8db2defc2" rel="nofollow">a different fire</a> in the Sepulveda Basin Recreation area, which is likely the one you noted. @frazgo, Thanks for the kind words. They mean more than you know. Respectfully Yours in Safety and Service, Brian Humphrey Firefighter/Specialist Public Service Officer Los Angeles Fire Department LAFD Blog: <strong><a href="http://lafd.org/blog" rel="nofollow">lafd.org/blog</a></strong> @mack,

There was indeed a different fire in the Sepulveda Basin Recreation area, which is likely the one you noted.

I'm in the Valley, near Oxnard and Kester, and it's pretty much due west of us. Honestly, it looks like Woodley Park. It’s not in Griffith Park.

They aren’t saying much but you can clearly see there are several fires, at least one that looks to be right next to the Observatory, and lots of firefighters on it. From my house in Silver Lake I can hear all kinds of sirens rushing past now too. Mack just posted a photo as well. [...] [...] Update: CBS2 has a live chopper cam of the fire.
