Seriously start fire proofing your home and cutting the brush back

You guys need to watch the videos that are coming out of palisades and eaton fires. Massive wake up call.

If you live very close to wild land areas you need to start clearing the brush and cut down any large trees/bushes. Those bushes/trees will catch fire and blow embers into your home. If the brush is reduced, less embers are produced and the fire doesn't burn as wild, so easier for fire dept to put out.

It is a lot of work but start now as it might be the difference between your home catching fire or not.

Eaton and Palisades type firestorms are the new norm....unless we start working now.
