Wow- I've been listening to the reports off and on but I hadn't really given them much thought until the evacuee count went into the 300,000+ range.

Yeah, my brother is sitting home with his truck gassed and ready to go in the event he has to join in the mass exodus - he's about 3 miles from a mandatory evac zone in Encinitas. He said it is unbelievable out there.

I've got a few family members that live in San Diego, so far no evacuation since they're on Mission Beach and on Coronado, but as fast as its moving towards the coast it's possible.
