This summer, the country was riveted by images of wildfires burning the southern California hills. Though modern wildfires are strong, none compare to the 1910 blaze known as the Big Burn. It charred three million acres of forest in Idaho and Montana and killed 86 people. It also sparked the legend of Ed Pulaski. He's one of the main characters in author Tim Egan's new book about the fire. The book and the fire's 100th anniversary are bringing new attention to the Pulaski story.

This is a time lapse of the Los Angeles Wildfires I shot from my balcony in Elysian Park (next to Dodger's Stadium). I started it in the afternoon and let it run through sunset and into the night. The song used is Nu Metal by Beware of Safety. If you like it, you can (legally!) download the whole album for free at www.gimmiesound.com/bewareofsafety Apologies for the shifting light level. This is the first time lapse I've done in awhile and I wasn't paying close enough attention to the exposure setting during sunset. Probably should have adjusted the aperture and not the exposure setting blah blah blah enjoy it for what it is.

(January 2009) Heavy seasonal rain and recent wildfire damage can make for a disastrous combination. Winter Rainy Season in the Northwestern United States brings intense winter storms and the majority of annual precipitation to the region. In addition, widespread wildfires this past year have burned more than 1.6 million acres of land in California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. Wildfires leave the ground charred, barren and unable to absorb water. This substantially increases the risk for severe flooding and mudflow. The coming months have the potential to bring both heavy rain and snowmelt which, coupled with wildfire damage, could result in catastrophic flooding. Many residents incorrectly believe that homeowners insurance covers flood damage. Only flood insurance protects properties from post-wildfire flooding and mudflow damage. Despite heightened risks, an average of only two percent of the households in this region of the country have flood insurance coverage.

Hot, dry conditions have made this one of the worst fire seasons in California history. With firefighters and equipment stretched thin, hundreds of remote blazes are left to simply burn. Is this a sign of fire seasons to come, and are we prepared to deal with it?
