day 3, morning

This morning things seem to be stable, all the warnings and maps are the same as they were last night. The hills that have been belching flame and smoke are now clear. They almost look the same, except that what was once green is now black and charred. We're venturing out to find food (by which I mean 'shop at the market' - in the unaffected areas life is still going on almost as normal) and we'll properly troll the news sources and give a more comprehensive update when we return. The links I posted yesterday are still informative, other news sources include the Daily Kos (scroll down, more recent postings are lower), and the LA Times.
