3. I was amazed at how many cars were parked on the road.
Those people ar nucking futs.

Fire that big and intense will explode their gas tanks even if the fire doesn't jump the roadway. They are forecasting gusts up to 90mph.

4. If you are on your way home and they close the road, you are kind of stuck
and people out here commute a LONG way..even on a "good travel day".. They got stranded between fires, probably

5. Well, you're hearing wind rushing around the camcorder microphone
Not the sound of the fires raging.
