Kate,
It was a matter of time- powers at be have been playing Russian roulette on this route all summer. Keep on top of it.
The possible wildfire has been taken down, and the CHP transferred this incident to the LPNF

Kate,
Rain. lightning & thunder recently since 3:45 AM. Pets not too happy. Howdy heavy rain.
There dozens of lightning bolts above the valley this morning, particularly from 6 – 7am followed by small burst of steady rain. I’m hoping that cal fire has the ability to send out a plain early today to see if anything east of the highway was ignited by the lightning . . .
The USFS sent out a helicopter AND a plane after the last lightning event.
That is good news! Keeping fingers crossed . . .
spotter plane overflight about an hour ago, south coast area.
