I received this photo taken by the NASA Terra satellite on August 30, 2009. Here you can see all of Southern California and get a pretty good idea of just how much was on fire at the time. If you look to the South East - you'll see a small lake that is pretty much surrounded by burnt area - well, that fire, known as the 2400 acre COTTONWOOD FIRE came within a mile of my home in Hemet, Fortunately the winds were blowing the other way and there were no evacuations or injuries/casualties.
