Sadly, wildfires are destroying a great deal of land and homes throughout Southern California with reportedly up to 700 homes lost. Here are some blogs reporting on the fires, particularly in relation to golf courses.
-
Geoff Shakelford is reporting that Phil Mickelson is among the 250,000 that have been evacuated due to fires in the San Diego area.
-
Curbed Los Angeles is reporting on the fire in Lake Arrowhead and that it is burning near the lake and Grass Valley Golf Course. No word of damage to the course but homes have reportedly been lost. An Ordinary Life has more on it.
-
The Google Earth Blog has satellite images of the wildfires wrecking havoc throughout So. Cal.
-
LiveLeak.com has video of a helicopter grabbing water from the lake at the ninth hole of the TPC Valencia Golf Course to fight fires in the areas.
While this is a golf site and we'd like to hear about any damage to Southern California golf courses, we know that's a minor concern at the matter for so many affected by these horrible fires. So please feel free to leave any comments, thoughts or information in comments.
Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Southern California or has family in affected areas during this frightening time. Good luck to all of you.
