About the Airport Wildfire

In September 2024, a wildfire was sparked by "reckless, stupid and incompetent" (OC Register) behaviour of the Orange County Public Works performing fire-safety work in the Trabuco Canyon area during an extreme heatwave.  Due to shifting winds, the wildfire grew rapidly (now consuming nearly 25K acres) and has made its way into the Lake Elsinore area. This devastating fire has destroyed many homes, people have been critically injured, property damaged or destroyed by fire or smoke, and evacuations have displaced people to friends or hotels. All these things have caused massive financial and emotional damage to thousands of people.
