Fierce Santa Ana winds whipping through Southern California on Monday fanned brush and house fires, knocked out power to 77,000 utility customers and littered roads with palm fronds and trash cans.The dry wind, gusting near 70 mph in some places, roared out of the desert and down mountain passes and canyons to the coast, sending firefighters chasing outbreaks and toppling big rigs on highways.One fire destroyed a home and damaged five others in the Tujunga section, and a blaze in suburban La Canada Flintridge forced evacuation of 15 homes before it was contained.By Monday night, a wildfire pushed by 30 mph wind spread over about 100 acres of brush near Highland, in the foothills of the San Bernardino National Forest east of Los Angeles, a Forest Services spokeswoman said. The blaze did not immediately threaten any structures.Most of the power outages were in San Gabriel Valley foothills and communities farther east.The La Canada Flintridge blaze was ignited by a fallen power line. Authorities were investigating whether the Tujunga fire had the same cause.In Santa Ana, a freeway billboard blew over, broke a power pole in half and smashed a pair of RVs. A huge oak tree fell on a house in Pasadena, and winds hampered firefighters battling a blaze that burned eight cars in Garden Grove.Six tractor-trailers and one box truck were blown over on Interstate 15 and its transition roads with I-210 and I-10, the California Highway Patrol said. Another toppled rig blocked the truck lane on I-5 north of Los Angeles. No injuries were reported in the wrecks.
"Santa Ana Winds" occur every year. La Nina has nothing to do with these winds. They are annual. La Nina is not. Everytime I post the Global Warming REALITY of the planet Rob Marchiano tries to explain it away. He's an asshole.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the News Secretary gets serious. For one night. Big deal. She is actually Anderson's cheerleader. Just can't help herself I am sure.

The Anti - Violence Denmark Cartoons. Here is something you don't have on your Blog. There is a history regarding activism. Dah. Theo van Gogh was murdered because of his film promoting RIGHTS for Islamic Women. Activism is not new to that society. The violence against the brave who dare to confront the oppression of Arabian cultures is not new either. However. It needs to stop along with the chronic violence within that culture. This literally can go on forever. It's just that there is a maniac president in Islam that wants to ignite the Middle EAst on fire. They hate intensely and they want to destroy Israel. Hamas was simply taking 'the brotherhood' to the next level. It has to stop. If it doesn't I am confident the 'cresendo' this has reached this time will find an end put to it !
Van Gogh killer jailed for life
A Dutch court has sentenced a 27-year-old radical Islamist to life in prison for the November murder of controversial film-maker Theo van Gogh.
Mohammed Bouyeri, who has joint Dutch-Moroccan nationality, had made a courtroom confession and had vowed to do the same again if given the chance.
The murder in Amsterdam stunned the Netherlands. The court ruled that it was a terrorist act.
The judge said the murder had triggered "great fear and insecurity" in society.
"The murder of Theo van Gogh provoked a wave of revulsion and disdain in the Netherlands. Theo van Gogh was mercilessly slaughtered," said Judge Udo Willem Bentinck.
Where are the reports of Islamic Gay Rights, Anderson?
Dutch MP to make gay Islam film
A Somali-born Dutch MP who collaborated on the film that led to the murder of director Theo van Gogh has written a sequel, about Islam's attitude to gays.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali received death threats after her work on Submission, a film about Islam's treatment of women.
Van Gogh was shot and stabbed by a Muslim radical, Mohammed Bouyeri, as he cycled through Amsterdam in 2004.
The film will use anonymous actors and carry no credits in an effort to protect those involved in the project.
Ms Ali told Dutch media that she had co-written the script with Van Gogh in the summer of 2004, months before he was killed last November.
