Fire on Cajon Pass

On Saturday, August 17, I was approaching the pass on my way home to Victorville from Corona and could not figure out why I-15 was so heavy with traffic on a late Saturday afternoon.  I soon found out.  But I think I was in the twilight zone because the first weird thing was the temperature reading.

Not what the temp really was.

This was the first reason for the traffic.

Then the first fire.

Then the second fire.

Good thing I got through when I did.
