Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. These are multimillion
dollar homes in the Ventura area, and hopefully the wind
calms down tonight and they can get start to get
their lives back tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
But this is just absolutely devastating.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
If you get home tonight, flip on TV, you'll see
home after home after home burn to the ground. And
some of these homes burn to the ground without a
fire truck ever showing up. They just were stretched too
thin and they didn't have enough personnel to show up
at every single one of these fires. So how about
how about that where you know your home is on
fire and no help is on the way. You know
(00:44):
you've been paying taxes your whole life, and when your
home catch is on fire, there's not enough personnel to
come put your house out. Just the anger and the
depression and the sorrow that goes on is incredible.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
And you know a lot.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Of memories, you know, Christmas, birthdays, Thanksgivings, all in that
house with family, maybe family members that are no longer
with you, and the last memories you have of them
are in that house. It's beyond devastating, beyond devastating. So
we'll keep an eye on this. It looks like they've
got a bit of a handle on it. I don't
(01:23):
see as many homes burning, and it looks like the
winds have calmed down just a bit. But the winds
are going to be tough all night and into tomorrow
as well. All right, last night we were here late
with the election, and Kamala Harris, the Vice President, has
officially conceded and called Donald Trump. Donald Trump will be
(01:47):
the forty seventh president of the United States. And here's
the here's Kamala Harris and her concession to Donald Trump
and what she said in that speech.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Folks are feeling and experiencing a range of emotions right now.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
I get it.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
But we must accept the results of this election.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Earlier today, I spoke.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
With President elect Trump and congratulated him on his victory.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I also told him.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
That we will help him and his team with their
transition and that we will engage in a peaceful transfer
of power. A fundamental principle of American democracy is that
when we lose an election, we accept the results. That principle,
(02:43):
as much as any other, distinguishes democracy from monarchy or tyranny,
and anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it.
At the same time, in our nation, we all loyalty
not to a president or a party, but to the
(03:06):
constitution of the United States.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yeah, I sort of feel bad for her.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
They really only gave her a short period of time,
you know, ninety days or so to get up and running.
A lot of people had no idea who she was
when she started, and she had to do it, do
a lot of this, you know, by herself. I think
they mismanaged a lot of that, and and I think,
you know, they're going to be looked back and see
what happened, what went wrong, And I think a lot
(03:34):
of things did.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I don't know, you know, I don't know. I've been
reading a.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Lot of sort of the analysis and the finger pointing
that's been going on, and a lot of people are
saying that the person basically in charge of the campaign
was was Biden's had a lot to do with Biden's campaign,
and she kept things very Biden centric with the people
that were still a part of the campaign and kept
a lot of paris As people sort of out of
the loop with emails and things like that Oh is
that right. Yeah, that's why, and that's why she was
(03:59):
kind of like not deferential, but she wasn't as as
strong in sort of separating herself from Biden, which a.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Lot of people criticized at the time.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
There was the view thing where she said when they
asked her, was there anything you would do differently? And
she says, well, I can't think of anything right now.
That was a huge thing with Yea.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
I I you know, I'm a sort of middle of
the road guy. I made a bet with a friend
of mine, you know, because I've become a huge liberal.
It's much easier in town. So I just, you know,
I just went for it. I saw the writing on
the wall. You know, other people who are really conservative
and radio have all bailed, either got fired or quit.
(04:42):
And so I don't know if you know this, but
I got a daughter in college, and I got a
pretty wicked gambling jones, and I'm really sort of unable
to shake and so I really need the job. And
I backed off a lot of politics, and so I
made you know, so I had a lot of my friends,
you know, liberal friends come in, you know, Billy Ray
and I Alex Michaelson and Alex Stone and you know
(05:06):
all the all the you know, the liberals. We've had
on the show Mark Thompson every Tuesday, big liberal and
and so I surrounded myself with them and and I
sort of got hooked into that. And I and I
made a bet with a friend of mine who's a
big one of these Trump a holes, you know, these
Trump trained guys. And I made a bet with them,
I that Kamala would win. And he said Trump would win.
(05:29):
And and I'm sorry, Kamala here and I and I
and he said, he said Trump would win. I said, nah,
I said, I think Kamala's got it. And I and
he said, he said, well, I uh, let's let's make
a bet.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
And I said all right. And I was drunk and
I and I bet him.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
And so now starting on an inauguration day in January,
January twentieth, I got to wear a Trump hat for
four years.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Four years.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
It was a buddy of mine I've known for a
long time, agoy named Gary McGary, who I've known since
like seventh grade, eighth that's unfortunately, yeah, you know, it's
a a bad deal. So I know, Belly, I was like, oh,
you know you don't have a friend named Gary McGary.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
I was you weren't on the arrows was I wasn't
keep that off the ear, so you didn't.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Embarrass yourself, Gary McGary. Yeah, I got a friend named
Gary mcgarrety name. You probably saw Gary Hoffman and you
get out of here. My friend Gary McGary.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
So he's a Trump trained guy. He's one of those
Trump idiots. And and now I've got to wear a
Trump hat or a Trump shirt or whatever for four
years starting on inauguration.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Four years. Oh really, that's right? Oh real, that's right.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
You have a.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Friend Gary, Gary mccarrett, Gary McCary, and you made up
that's right, And now you have I gotta wear a
Trump gear for four years. This sounds so absurd, It.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Sounds odd, It sounds well, you know what, Maybe you're
overthinking ever accuse you of that, of overthinking stuff?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Ah yeah, maybe okay, that's what you're doing. Yeah, yeah,
you're overthinking it. But what happens if you don't wear it?
I don't know. I don't know. I guess I got to,
you know, give him a couple of bus you don't
want to get mushed. I know, I don't it's mushed whatever. Yes,
(07:30):
I was overthinking it. It's not mushed. What is it?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
It's mushed mush Yeah, kind of like mush is when
you can you mush a guy that you know, you
make a bet together, or you owe money and you don't.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Pay him, you mush him. That's what. It's an old
tract term. So you wear the hat because you don't
want to get mushed.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Mushed, that's what I say, mushed mushka, Mickey mouse over here?
Is that a physical thing?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
The mud? I don't know where that term came from.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
No, it's it's it's like a buddy of mine hooked
up with one of those websites where.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
You bet, you know, on gambling, and.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
There's an online casino and he put a credit card
in for two grand and then like three months later
they denied the charges.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So he called that.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
The online casino called him and said, hey, your credit
card didn't go through. It's just denied you OS two
thousand dollars. And he said, sweetheart, that money's gone, and
he goes, yeah, I know you gambled it. You OS
two grand. He said, He goes, I'm gonna tell you
again that money. I don't have that money anymore. I
spent it on your site gambling. It's gone. You got
(08:43):
the money, yeah, And he said, well but you its
too granting because I'm not gonna I don't know how
else to tell you this. I'm not paying you. It's gone.
I don't have anymore. I put it on your site.
I spent it on your gambling site. And I'm mushing you.
I'm not paying you. I don't pay anybody. I don't
pay anybody anything. So you're not getting a dime out
of me.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Those are the guys you run into the track all
the time, all the time, every day.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
All right.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
We'll keep an eye on this fire, devastating fire, the
Mountain fire they're calling. It's burned ten thousand, five hundred acres.
They're looking at winds tomorrow in the thirty to forty
mile an hour range, temperatures in the seventies, and wind
gusts from forty to sixty five miles an hour, steady
(09:27):
winds at fifteen to twenty miles an hour. That is
going to be tough for everybody lives up in that area.
And it's going to extend to Santa Clarita all the
way to ox Nard, Ohai, Santa Paula, came Rio, Moor Park,
and Seami Valley, plus the valleys San Fadanna Valley. You're
gonna get wind as well. The humidity is really really
low out there, double digits low, double digits. Fifteen percent
(09:49):
Santa Clarita sixteen percent in Pasadena, fifteen percent out where
Crozier lives in Claremont, twelve percent in San Bernardino, thirteen
in Riverside, nine in Santa Ana nine humidity eight percent
near the ocean at lax eight percent humidity. It's unbelievable
eleven percent into Mecula. So keep an eye out there.
(10:09):
It's gonna be tough to sleep. Sign with the winds.
Everyone thinks you know fire is coming, and it is
in a lot of neighborhoods, so be careful.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Keep an eye on the mountain fire.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
And if there's any more press conferences or updates we
having for immediately, but just devastating up in cam Rio
and Ventura. Home after home beautiful four or five six
thousand square foot homes, a lot of property, a lot
of them have vineyards, so they're making they're growing their
own grapes, making their own wine, enjoying themselves in a
in a part of California, it doesn't get a lot
(10:47):
of attention.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
It's not Data Point, it's not Laguna, it's not Newport,
it's not Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Malibu. But the weather
up there in came Rion, with the exception of today,
and it's spectacular. It's always ten fifteen, twenty, sometimes thirty
degrees cooler than the San Fernando Valley. And when it
(11:10):
was hot in the valley, and my wife and I,
we lived in Tarzana, we just put our daughter in
the car, she's one two years old, and we drive
to Ventura just to get out of the heat and
enjoy ourselves. And once you get over that, you know,
you go through West Lake Thousand Oaks, and then you're
on the mountain there on the decline there and you
(11:34):
ascend into the Camborillo area. You can feel the temperature
drop by ten twenty, sometimes thirty degrees into that area
and it's great. The people up there are great people
in Ventura, Oxnard.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
It's like living in the Midwest. It's that type of people.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
A lot of families, a lot of kids, people at
generational houses up there.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
People have been there for thirty forty fifty.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
The guy that used to direct the Carburnet Show, he
used to have a house up there and a boat,
and he used to be a great.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Guy to go visit.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Guy loved it up there, and he lived two hours
sometimes two and a half, three hours from work, and
he'd take an hour and a half to get home
every night. And he drove it every day. Dave Powers
is his name. Every single day he drove from downtown
Ventura where he had his house up there, to Fairfax
(12:30):
in Beverly every day, five days a week. And people
always astonished by that. Hey, why are you driving two
and a half hours every morning? He said, because I
get away from work and it's like being on vacation.
Seal Beach is another great area. When I used to
live in Seal Beach, it was an hour, sometimes an
hour and a half, two hours to get to work,
(12:52):
but when I was when I got home, it was
like being in Hawaii. And that Seal Beach area is
one of the most spectacular downtown areas in the world.
So much so that when I live down there, I
used to talk about how great Seal Beach was and
I got a call at home from the mayor. Mayor
got my phone number through a mutual friend. He is, hey, Tim,
(13:14):
it's a mayor Seal.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
But I was like, ah, Mayor, how you doing? Nicest?
Say God? And he could say, can I ask you
a huge favorite? I sat, sure or anything? I'm here?
What do you need?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
I'll fire department looking for a donation. Is there a
bake sale going on? I'll put something together. I don't know,
a bunt cake or something. He said, no, no, no, Could
you be a favorite? Could you on k if? I?
Could you stop talking about how great Seal Beaches? I
said what he said, yeh, it's bringing a lot of
riff raff in because I don't know who's list of
your station, but it's bringing a lot of riffraffie.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Yeah, cl not seeing a lot of problem people coming
in there too.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Does Claremont get pissed when you talk about it on
the air? Never had anybody complain to me? Yeah? Well,
I don't know. I think I had.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
More people at the party at Morongo come up to
me and talk about Claremont does, Is that right? Yeah,
it felt pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
That's really cool.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah, yeah, I love Claremont the couple of times I've
driven through it. The things that strike me about Claremont
is one, every single person, without exception, And you don't
see this in Burbank just you know, you know, you
don't see much in the valley, but without the without exception,
every person has their lawn or shrubbery manicured. Yeah, nobody
(14:24):
says screw it. In Burbank you still have the ninety
eight year old guy it' said effort like twenty years ago,
and it's it's weed city everywhere. Yeah, paint chipping off
the house.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Claremont's nice, but it's not as nice as Seal Beach.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Yeah, broken windows and you know Burbank, Yeah, guy, I said,
screw it. You know, he's going to live there, doesn't
want anyone bothering him, and he's not going to do
his lawn. But in Claremont, everybody it looks great. And
I and also there's no billboards.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I noticed in Claremont. That is absolutely correct. Everything is
you know, a sign can only be three or four
feet tall. No drive throughs, Is that right? I didn't know, man,
no drive through no uh liquor stores.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Wait, there's no liquor stores in Claremont. Fast food restaurants,
Get out of here.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
What a hell hole? Oh, trust me.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Right outside the Claremont line, there's more than one you
could find.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Oh yeah, if you go east, that's where that big
shopping center is.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (15:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
And if you go uh, if you go west, yeah,
you'll hit uh, you'll hit Laverne Pomona. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Yeah. And wait, does does Claremont stretch all the way
to the ten?
Speaker 5 (15:27):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Oh it does. Yeah, going down Indian Hill.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, that's where they always have the the uh prostitution
busts that always take place abound once every couple of months,
right there in Claremont, at the line of the ten
in Indian Hills. Where is then just south of the
ten on Indian Hill Boulevard in Claremont Indian Hill.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Yes, sir, there's a.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Couple of hotel motels down there on the other side
of the freeway there on the south side.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Slow down, Wait a minute, what there's motels? Yes, there
are hourly right. I don't know, I think so though, God,
you got to be I mean in twenty twenty four
going in for an hourly rate in a motel.
Speaker 7 (16:08):
You have got to, you know, see where you are
in life. You are scraping a little bit. You got
to take a break me scratching and scraping. You're just
walking way too slow in life. You got to pick
it up. Hourly rate. What is an hourly rate? Got
twenty five bucks back in the day.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
What I remember, like when I first got out here
and I was driving around looking for cheaper places to stay. Yeah,
it would get that cheap thirty I want to say,
like thirty forty something like an hour. It's been so
long I remember seeing them and I never took up
on it, so sure, I just remember seeing them.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Okay, Well, and if the hourly rate is thirty dollars
an hour, that's three hundred and sixty dollars a day.
And that's like Rich Carlton, you know, but you got
the color TV and.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
HBO. That shakes.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I throw a corner, and yeah, the kids like it
until the kids realize when they get older, what they've done.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
What and what they're shaking up for the address hourly rate?
Speaker 1 (17:15):
And I don't know, you know, I think you have
to have a guy work the front desk. If you're
going to go hourly rate, I don't think a young lady.
That's not her job, you know, as the you know,
the receptionist for Bob's s.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
House, sleeveless t shirt, a little greasy, all tatted up.
Everybody has to be tatted up there.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
All right, We're keeping on these these poor people up
in the Ventura Oxnard came Rio just devastated by this fire.
Speaker 8 (17:47):
Hey, Timmy, Chris Christie just said that houses in Santa
Paula are catching on fire.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Oh my god, that's that's fire. That's crazy. Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
All right, we'll come back, we'll see we can get
some information on that.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
That's where Chris Christy was before.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
And he took a camera shot of what is for
three or four miles away and he said, no, there,
that can't be a fire connected to this. It just
can't be. And it is it is. That's another three
four five miles northwest of where this fire is currently burning.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
That's unreal.
Speaker 6 (18:24):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
This horrible fire that's been burning all day long.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
It started early around nine o'clock this morning and it's
it's really affected. A lot of people live up there
and people are are devastated, depressed, out of the mine
they've seen, you know, one neighbor's house after another after
another burned to the ground. And we have an update
here on the Mountain fire from Santa Paula.
Speaker 9 (18:52):
Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse here
in camber Rio, we now have new reports of houses
catching on fire in the Santa Paula area on the
other side of Camio Heights, which is what you're looking
at right here. This is a new fire start, a
big house catching on fire here in the last half
hour or so, there are dozens.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
There's no way that these people whose homes are burning
now in the Santa paul area, there's no way in
the world when they heard this fire this morning in
Moore Park would have ever, ever in their worst nightmare,
thought that that fire would go west and northwest enough
to burn their home down. Never ever, It's just it's
(19:32):
remarkable how quickly this fire and how far it has
it has.
Speaker 9 (19:36):
Traveled, catching on fire here in the last half hour
or so, there are dozens of active house fires here
on the north side of the city of Camarillo. It
has been a devastating day for this town and you
could see that fire threat is continuing into the night.
This entire area is under a mandatory evacuation order and
(19:57):
will remain so into tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
Reporting Live Mare seven Chris Christy.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
ABC, ABC Channel seven.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Here's an update a little while ago on the Mountain fire.
Multiple multiple houses burned in the dozens and a lot
of them. Five six thousand square foot homes, three four
five million dollar homes.
Speaker 9 (20:16):
Easily throughout the afternoon, We've been trying to keep tracking
come up with a rough number. We're talking about many dozens.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Of homes, many dozens, three four five dozen, could be
sixty seventy homes. And tomorrow, when you wake up and
you turn the TV on, you're getting up by getting
your coffee and you're going to go to work, maybe
you're listening to KFI and then you watch a little
bit of TV, you're going to see it just devastate
like a war zone tomorrow in camerion.
Speaker 9 (20:44):
Many dozens of homes that have burned to the ground
here in Camera Rio.
Speaker 5 (20:49):
Throughout this section of the city.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
You could see the foothills near the left side of
your screen there and as you come down the more
densely populated flats continuing to burn. As the sunsets, you
could see each bright spot representing a separate house fire
that is ongoing.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
At this hour.
Speaker 9 (21:06):
It has been a devastating day here in the city
of Caberrio, this fire starting earlier.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
This morning and continuing to burn.
Speaker 9 (21:14):
Although the winds are starting to die down ever so slightly,
for the evening, this fire will be laying down. We're
talking ten thousand acres, not of brush or forestry, but
of suburban environment, as these homes are mostly a total loss.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Reporting and Sophie Flay was out there with ABC News
this is about fu about a half hour, maybe forty
minutes ago.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
We've talked to residents who've either had to evacuate or
have chosen to stay behind, some who are very close
to those evacuation zones. And with Angela Bernson, who has
been monitoring all of this, like many residents, watching this
with great concern as she sees what's happening up in
the mountain. Angela, You've been watching all day, all morning, afternoon.
(22:02):
You've been a resident of Camrio for more than fifty years.
What has the state been like and what are you watching.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
It's been extremely devastating to watch just you know, three
two and a half, three miles away. You're just watching
the mountaintop, you know house and then another house just
going up in flames, and then you know, helicopters going
(22:29):
around your house, and it's just been it's been a
very devastating day for the city of Camrio. You know,
it's very quiet here, just very devastating.
Speaker 10 (22:43):
We see one of those properties. I'm not sure if
you're able to capture that through the lens by. There
was a really large property that was on fire. We
see some of those flames. It's still there, you know.
Speaker 12 (22:57):
Yeah, like that that house right there seem like it
went away and then now is starting to flare back up.
So we're seeing a lot of that, and then you know,
the win is just picking that up and going into
another property and then taking that house.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
And it's really tough because the news people who went
up there, you know Channel two, four, five, eleven, nine seven,
they have to be very careful not to intrude on
the worst day of these people's lives, on some of them,
and yet they have to get the news out there
(23:35):
because the only way you get, you know, FEMA and
natural disaster zones and money from the county, the state,
the federal government is if it's on the news every
single second, and then politicians will see it and they
will they'll have to react to it and they will
(23:57):
send money. So it's a very fine line that they draw,
you know, to interview somebody who on their worst day,
But to get that news out there is beneficial for
the people live up there because they will get more money,
more help, more support the more we get the word
out there, and that's why a lot of that's one
of the reasons why a lot of them are out there.

If you have big animals up in Ventura, cattle horses,
take them to the Ventura Ferry, Ventura County Fairgrounds, ten
East Harbor Boulevard right now that Crown Plaza, right off
the pier for small animals. Six hundred Aviation Drive in Camrio,
that's the Ventura County Animal Services six hundred Aviation Drive
(24:48):
right near the airport and evacuation shelter Padre Sarah Parish
Padre Sarah Parish fifty two five Upland Avenue in Camio.
The fire in Malibu fifteen percent contain the Mountain fire,
the bigger one in Camrio. It doesn't say anything about containment.
(25:08):
Over ten thousand, four hundred and fifty acres have burned.
So we'll have updates for you all night long. But
be careful out there, even if you're not in came
Rio or in Malibu, maybe an Orange County riverside San Bernardino.
These winds are going to continue all night long and
into tomorrow as well.
Speaker 8 (25:26):
We're still in time to secure any of those loose
outdoor items charger devices. As Lauren, we're seeing there's a
possibility for some power shut ups and also just some
power outages. Be careful where you park. There's a big
chance that we could see some uprooted trees. We don't
want any damage to your car, so put it in
a garage somewhere.
Speaker 13 (25:44):
Avoid travel if you can.
Speaker 8 (25:45):
Especially high profile vehicles. Today it's going to be very
challenging on the roads, and stay informed with our First
Alert weather team. Now, the biggest concern here is fire danger.
We have red flag warnings that cover most of southern California,
but there are areas where we.
Speaker 13 (26:01):
Are more concerned.
Speaker 8 (26:02):
We have extreme fire risk through the mountains of La
and Ventura County through Santa Clarita, and we have critical
fire danger extending over the La County Mountains, through the
San Bernardino Mountains, over into the Inland Empire and the
Santa Ana Mountains. Who avoid using anything that could create
a spark today.
Speaker 13 (26:21):
And here's the weather setup.
Speaker 8 (26:23):
It's the system that's digging down into the rockies.
Speaker 13 (26:26):
Yesterday was in the Great Basin.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
And you know, up in San Francisco, the entire city
of San Francisco, the entire San Francisco Bay Area, San Jose,
all that entire Oakland, that whole area is under the
same exact watch we are right now. The fire danger
is exactly the same up in northern California as it
(26:48):
is here in southern California. So wherever you go, it's
just the whole state is getting wiped up.
Speaker 8 (26:54):
Yesterday it was in the Great Basin, but this system
really is increasing those through the mountain passes in canyons.
It's got very cold air, so unlike some of those
warmer saturay Ana wind events, this system is going to
be a cold one, So the winds that are channeling
through those mountain passes and canyons are going to be chilly.
Speaker 13 (27:13):
Later this week.
Speaker 8 (27:14):
That's when we're going to see an improvement, not really
until we get into Friday, even Saturday, the weather really
is shaping up to be fine.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
But okay, So the weather, it's going to be freezing,
very very cold here in southern California. Up in Big Bear.
Be low tonight, I think is twenty nine degrees in
Big Bear thirty one Tomorrow, thirty seven on Friday, it
doesn't warm up to the forties until Saturday. Even here
locally in the San Fernando Valley, tonight's low is going
(27:42):
to be forty six.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Degrees, so fairly cold.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
In Malibu, Santa Monica out near the ocean, these Santa
Ana winds usually heat the ocean up or heat the
coastline up, but not this one. Forty eight, forty seven,
forty six degrees, forty nine, forty nine, forty nine, So
it's going to be in the forties for the entire
week at night for your low's in Orange County a
(28:11):
little bit better in Orange County, not as cold. Irvine
area Orange County forty seven tonight forty nine on Friday
and Saturday for the low. So it's going to be
very very cold outside, especially up in the mountains Lancaster
and the Annelov Valley thirty one degrees tonight, freezing thirty
(28:33):
five thirty eight, forty thirty nine. It's not going to
get into the forties until Tuesday of next week, so
the nighttime low will be in the low to mid
thirties for the Anelope Valley all week long. Freezing, just freezing,
freezing weather. If you're wandering out today and you're wondering
(28:55):
why there are so many people at the Glendale Galleria,
that's because Mookie Bets is there. He got there around
about fifty five minutes ago at six o'clock. I don't
know if you can still slide in there or not,
but Mookie Bets with the La Dodgers at the Glendale
Gallleria right now signing autographs. So if you have some
(29:17):
time you want to slide over there, you can get
an autograph from maybe if you get in.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
I don't know if you can get in.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
I know they're given out wristbands earlier, and if you
can get in.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Mookie bets.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
A lot of the Dodgers are out around the community
giving back, autographing merchandise, shirts, hats, pictures, posters, and thanking
the fans for showing up in such huge numbers, not
only during the World Series, but afterwards for the parade
and the big celebration at Dodgers Stadium as well.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
So Mookie bets tonight.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
The positive news, he's at the Glendale Gallerya signing autographs
right now. The bad news is the fire in Malibu
and the Mountain fire.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
They remain.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Wildly devastating to everybody in that area. If you haven't
seen any photos, maybe working all day, you're in the
car driving home, flip on some of the local news
tonight nine ten o'clock, eleven o'clock, and you'll see what
we've been talking about all day.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
These fires are are just horrible.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
It's huge homes in Ventura, a lot of them, you know,
old been there for thirty, forty fifty years, some of
these families, and literally in twenty minutes, everything's gone. Everything's gone.
And at some point, you know, in your sixties, seventies, eighties,
you don't have the money or the time or the
(30:41):
energy to replace it. And where you thought you'd be
spending the rest of your life, in your single family home.
Your whole life has changed, and so we can. You know,
hearts go out to the people that have been devastated
by this horrible, horrible fire.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
We'll have updates all night.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Long Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now
you can always hear us live on KFI Am six
forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. These are multimillion
dollar homes in the Ventura area, and hopefully the wind
calms down tonight and they can get start to get
their lives back tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
But this is just absolutely devastating.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
If you get home tonight, flip on TV, you'll see
home after home after home burn to the ground. And
some of these homes burn to the ground without a
fire truck ever showing up. They just were stretched too
thin and they didn't have enough personnel to show up
at every single one of these fires. So how about
how about that where you know your home is on
fire and no help is on the way. You know
(00:44):
you've been paying taxes your whole life, and when your
home catch is on fire, there's not enough personnel to
come put your house out. Just the anger and the
depression and the sorrow that goes on is incredible.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
And you know a lot.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Of memories, you know, Christmas, birthdays, Thanksgivings, all in that
house with family, maybe family members that are no longer
with you, and the last memories you have of them
are in that house. It's beyond devastating, beyond devastating. So
we'll keep an eye on this. It looks like they've
got a bit of a handle on it. I don't
(01:23):
see as many homes burning, and it looks like the
winds have calmed down just a bit. But the winds
are going to be tough all night and into tomorrow
as well. All right, last night we were here late
with the election, and Kamala Harris, the Vice President, has
officially conceded and called Donald Trump. Donald Trump will be
(01:47):
the forty seventh president of the United States. And here's
the here's Kamala Harris and her concession to Donald Trump
and what she said in that speech.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Folks are feeling and experiencing a range of emotions right now.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
I get it.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
But we must accept the results of this election.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Earlier today, I spoke.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
With President elect Trump and congratulated him on his victory.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I also told him.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
That we will help him and his team with their
transition and that we will engage in a peaceful transfer
of power. A fundamental principle of American democracy is that
when we lose an election, we accept the results. That principle,
(02:43):
as much as any other, distinguishes democracy from monarchy or tyranny,
and anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it.
At the same time, in our nation, we all loyalty
not to a president or a party, but to the
(03:06):
constitution of the United States.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yeah, I sort of feel bad for her.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
They really only gave her a short period of time,
you know, ninety days or so to get up and running.
A lot of people had no idea who she was
when she started, and she had to do it, do
a lot of this, you know, by herself. I think
they mismanaged a lot of that, and and I think,
you know, they're going to be looked back and see
what happened, what went wrong, And I think a lot
(03:34):
of things did.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I don't know, you know, I don't know. I've been
reading a.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Lot of sort of the analysis and the finger pointing
that's been going on, and a lot of people are
saying that the person basically in charge of the campaign
was was Biden's had a lot to do with Biden's campaign,
and she kept things very Biden centric with the people
that were still a part of the campaign and kept
a lot of paris As people sort of out of
the loop with emails and things like that Oh is
that right. Yeah, that's why, and that's why she was
(03:59):
kind of like not deferential, but she wasn't as as
strong in sort of separating herself from Biden, which a.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Lot of people criticized at the time.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
There was the view thing where she said when they
asked her, was there anything you would do differently? And
she says, well, I can't think of anything right now.
That was a huge thing with Yea.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
I I you know, I'm a sort of middle of
the road guy. I made a bet with a friend
of mine, you know, because I've become a huge liberal.
It's much easier in town. So I just, you know,
I just went for it. I saw the writing on
the wall. You know, other people who are really conservative
and radio have all bailed, either got fired or quit.
(04:42):
And so I don't know if you know this, but
I got a daughter in college, and I got a
pretty wicked gambling jones, and I'm really sort of unable
to shake and so I really need the job. And
I backed off a lot of politics, and so I
made you know, so I had a lot of my friends,
you know, liberal friends come in, you know, Billy Ray
and I Alex Michaelson and Alex Stone and you know
(05:06):
all the all the you know, the liberals. We've had
on the show Mark Thompson every Tuesday, big liberal and
and so I surrounded myself with them and and I
sort of got hooked into that. And I and I
made a bet with a friend of mine who's a
big one of these Trump a holes, you know, these
Trump trained guys. And I made a bet with them,
I that Kamala would win. And he said Trump would win.
(05:29):
And and I'm sorry, Kamala here and I and I
and he said, he said Trump would win. I said, nah,
I said, I think Kamala's got it. And I and
he said, he said, well, I uh, let's let's make
a bet.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
And I said all right. And I was drunk and
I and I bet him.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
And so now starting on an inauguration day in January,
January twentieth, I got to wear a Trump hat for
four years.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Four years.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
It was a buddy of mine I've known for a
long time, agoy named Gary McGary, who I've known since
like seventh grade, eighth that's unfortunately, yeah, you know, it's
a a bad deal. So I know, Belly, I was like, oh,
you know you don't have a friend named Gary McGary.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
I was you weren't on the arrows was I wasn't
keep that off the ear, so you didn't.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Embarrass yourself, Gary McGary. Yeah, I got a friend named
Gary mcgarrety name. You probably saw Gary Hoffman and you
get out of here. My friend Gary McGary.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
So he's a Trump trained guy. He's one of those
Trump idiots. And and now I've got to wear a
Trump hat or a Trump shirt or whatever for four
years starting on inauguration.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Four years. Oh really, that's right? Oh real, that's right.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
You have a.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Friend Gary, Gary mccarrett, Gary McCary, and you made up
that's right, And now you have I gotta wear a
Trump gear for four years. This sounds so absurd, It.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Sounds odd, It sounds well, you know what, Maybe you're
overthinking ever accuse you of that, of overthinking stuff?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Ah yeah, maybe okay, that's what you're doing. Yeah, yeah,
you're overthinking it. But what happens if you don't wear it?
I don't know. I don't know. I guess I got to,
you know, give him a couple of bus you don't
want to get mushed. I know, I don't it's mushed whatever. Yes,
(07:30):
I was overthinking it. It's not mushed. What is it?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
It's mushed mush Yeah, kind of like mush is when
you can you mush a guy that you know, you
make a bet together, or you owe money and you don't.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Pay him, you mush him. That's what. It's an old
tract term. So you wear the hat because you don't
want to get mushed.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Mushed, that's what I say, mushed mushka, Mickey mouse over here?
Is that a physical thing?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
The mud? I don't know where that term came from.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
No, it's it's it's like a buddy of mine hooked
up with one of those websites where.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
You bet, you know, on gambling, and.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
There's an online casino and he put a credit card
in for two grand and then like three months later
they denied the charges.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So he called that.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
The online casino called him and said, hey, your credit
card didn't go through. It's just denied you OS two
thousand dollars. And he said, sweetheart, that money's gone, and
he goes, yeah, I know you gambled it. You OS
two grand. He said, He goes, I'm gonna tell you
again that money. I don't have that money anymore. I
spent it on your site gambling. It's gone. You got
(08:43):
the money, yeah, And he said, well but you its
too granting because I'm not gonna I don't know how
else to tell you this. I'm not paying you. It's gone.
I don't have anymore. I put it on your site.
I spent it on your gambling site. And I'm mushing you.
I'm not paying you. I don't pay anybody. I don't
pay anybody anything. So you're not getting a dime out
of me.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Those are the guys you run into the track all
the time, all the time, every day.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
All right.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
We'll keep an eye on this fire, devastating fire, the
Mountain fire they're calling. It's burned ten thousand, five hundred acres.
They're looking at winds tomorrow in the thirty to forty
mile an hour range, temperatures in the seventies, and wind
gusts from forty to sixty five miles an hour, steady
(09:27):
winds at fifteen to twenty miles an hour. That is
going to be tough for everybody lives up in that area.
And it's going to extend to Santa Clarita all the
way to ox Nard, Ohai, Santa Paula, came Rio, Moor Park,
and Seami Valley, plus the valleys San Fadanna Valley. You're
gonna get wind as well. The humidity is really really
low out there, double digits low, double digits. Fifteen percent
(09:49):
Santa Clarita sixteen percent in Pasadena, fifteen percent out where
Crozier lives in Claremont, twelve percent in San Bernardino, thirteen
in Riverside, nine in Santa Ana nine humidity eight percent
near the ocean at lax eight percent humidity. It's unbelievable
eleven percent into Mecula. So keep an eye out there.
(10:09):
It's gonna be tough to sleep. Sign with the winds.
Everyone thinks you know fire is coming, and it is
in a lot of neighborhoods, so be careful.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Keep an eye on the mountain fire.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
And if there's any more press conferences or updates we
having for immediately, but just devastating up in cam Rio
and Ventura. Home after home beautiful four or five six
thousand square foot homes, a lot of property, a lot
of them have vineyards, so they're making they're growing their
own grapes, making their own wine, enjoying themselves in a
in a part of California, it doesn't get a lot
(10:47):
of attention.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
It's not Data Point, it's not Laguna, it's not Newport,
it's not Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Malibu. But the weather
up there in came Rion, with the exception of today,
and it's spectacular. It's always ten fifteen, twenty, sometimes thirty
degrees cooler than the San Fernando Valley. And when it
(11:10):
was hot in the valley, and my wife and I,
we lived in Tarzana, we just put our daughter in
the car, she's one two years old, and we drive
to Ventura just to get out of the heat and
enjoy ourselves. And once you get over that, you know,
you go through West Lake Thousand Oaks, and then you're
on the mountain there on the decline there and you
(11:34):
ascend into the Camborillo area. You can feel the temperature
drop by ten twenty, sometimes thirty degrees into that area
and it's great. The people up there are great people
in Ventura, Oxnard.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
It's like living in the Midwest. It's that type of people.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
A lot of families, a lot of kids, people at
generational houses up there.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
People have been there for thirty forty fifty.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
The guy that used to direct the Carburnet Show, he
used to have a house up there and a boat,
and he used to be a great.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Guy to go visit.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Guy loved it up there, and he lived two hours
sometimes two and a half, three hours from work, and
he'd take an hour and a half to get home
every night. And he drove it every day. Dave Powers
is his name. Every single day he drove from downtown
Ventura where he had his house up there, to Fairfax
(12:30):
in Beverly every day, five days a week. And people
always astonished by that. Hey, why are you driving two
and a half hours every morning? He said, because I
get away from work and it's like being on vacation.
Seal Beach is another great area. When I used to
live in Seal Beach, it was an hour, sometimes an
hour and a half, two hours to get to work,
(12:52):
but when I was when I got home, it was
like being in Hawaii. And that Seal Beach area is
one of the most spectacular downtown areas in the world.
So much so that when I live down there, I
used to talk about how great Seal Beach was and
I got a call at home from the mayor. Mayor
got my phone number through a mutual friend. He is, hey, Tim,
(13:14):
it's a mayor Seal.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
But I was like, ah, Mayor, how you doing? Nicest?
Say God? And he could say, can I ask you
a huge favorite? I sat, sure or anything? I'm here?
What do you need?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
I'll fire department looking for a donation. Is there a
bake sale going on? I'll put something together. I don't know,
a bunt cake or something. He said, no, no, no, Could
you be a favorite? Could you on k if? I?
Could you stop talking about how great Seal Beaches? I
said what he said, yeh, it's bringing a lot of
riff raff in because I don't know who's list of
your station, but it's bringing a lot of riffraffie.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Yeah, cl not seeing a lot of problem people coming
in there too.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Does Claremont get pissed when you talk about it on
the air? Never had anybody complain to me? Yeah? Well,
I don't know. I think I had.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
More people at the party at Morongo come up to
me and talk about Claremont does, Is that right? Yeah,
it felt pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
That's really cool.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah, yeah, I love Claremont the couple of times I've
driven through it. The things that strike me about Claremont
is one, every single person, without exception, And you don't
see this in Burbank just you know, you know, you
don't see much in the valley, but without the without exception,
every person has their lawn or shrubbery manicured. Yeah, nobody
(14:24):
says screw it. In Burbank you still have the ninety
eight year old guy it' said effort like twenty years ago,
and it's it's weed city everywhere. Yeah, paint chipping off
the house.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Claremont's nice, but it's not as nice as Seal Beach.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Yeah, broken windows and you know Burbank, Yeah, guy, I said,
screw it. You know, he's going to live there, doesn't
want anyone bothering him, and he's not going to do
his lawn. But in Claremont, everybody it looks great. And
I and also there's no billboards.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I noticed in Claremont. That is absolutely correct. Everything is
you know, a sign can only be three or four
feet tall. No drive throughs, Is that right? I didn't know, man,
no drive through no uh liquor stores.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Wait, there's no liquor stores in Claremont. Fast food restaurants,
Get out of here.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
What a hell hole? Oh, trust me.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Right outside the Claremont line, there's more than one you
could find.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Oh yeah, if you go east, that's where that big
shopping center is.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (15:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
And if you go uh, if you go west, yeah,
you'll hit uh, you'll hit Laverne Pomona. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Yeah. And wait, does does Claremont stretch all the way
to the ten?
Speaker 5 (15:27):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Oh it does. Yeah, going down Indian Hill.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, that's where they always have the the uh prostitution
busts that always take place abound once every couple of months,
right there in Claremont, at the line of the ten
in Indian Hills. Where is then just south of the
ten on Indian Hill Boulevard in Claremont Indian Hill.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Yes, sir, there's a.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Couple of hotel motels down there on the other side
of the freeway there on the south side.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Slow down, Wait a minute, what there's motels? Yes, there
are hourly right. I don't know, I think so though, God,
you got to be I mean in twenty twenty four
going in for an hourly rate in a motel.
Speaker 7 (16:08):
You have got to, you know, see where you are
in life. You are scraping a little bit. You got
to take a break me scratching and scraping. You're just
walking way too slow in life. You got to pick
it up. Hourly rate. What is an hourly rate? Got
twenty five bucks back in the day.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
What I remember, like when I first got out here
and I was driving around looking for cheaper places to stay. Yeah,
it would get that cheap thirty I want to say,
like thirty forty something like an hour. It's been so
long I remember seeing them and I never took up
on it, so sure, I just remember seeing them.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Okay, Well, and if the hourly rate is thirty dollars
an hour, that's three hundred and sixty dollars a day.
And that's like Rich Carlton, you know, but you got
the color TV and.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
HBO. That shakes.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I throw a corner, and yeah, the kids like it
until the kids realize when they get older, what they've done.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
What and what they're shaking up for the address hourly rate?
Speaker 1 (17:15):
And I don't know, you know, I think you have
to have a guy work the front desk. If you're
going to go hourly rate, I don't think a young lady.
That's not her job, you know, as the you know,
the receptionist for Bob's s.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
House, sleeveless t shirt, a little greasy, all tatted up.
Everybody has to be tatted up there.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
All right, We're keeping on these these poor people up
in the Ventura Oxnard came Rio just devastated by this fire.
Speaker 8 (17:47):
Hey, Timmy, Chris Christie just said that houses in Santa
Paula are catching on fire.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Oh my god, that's that's fire. That's crazy. Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
All right, we'll come back, we'll see we can get
some information on that.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
That's where Chris Christy was before.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
And he took a camera shot of what is for
three or four miles away and he said, no, there,
that can't be a fire connected to this. It just
can't be. And it is it is. That's another three
four five miles northwest of where this fire is currently burning.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
That's unreal.
Speaker 6 (18:24):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
This horrible fire that's been burning all day long.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
It started early around nine o'clock this morning and it's
it's really affected. A lot of people live up there
and people are are devastated, depressed, out of the mine
they've seen, you know, one neighbor's house after another after
another burned to the ground. And we have an update
here on the Mountain fire from Santa Paula.
Speaker 9 (18:52):
Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse here
in camber Rio, we now have new reports of houses
catching on fire in the Santa Paula area on the
other side of Camio Heights, which is what you're looking
at right here. This is a new fire start, a
big house catching on fire here in the last half
hour or so, there are dozens.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
There's no way that these people whose homes are burning
now in the Santa paul area, there's no way in
the world when they heard this fire this morning in
Moore Park would have ever, ever in their worst nightmare,
thought that that fire would go west and northwest enough
to burn their home down. Never ever, It's just it's
(19:32):
remarkable how quickly this fire and how far it has
it has.
Speaker 9 (19:36):
Traveled, catching on fire here in the last half hour
or so, there are dozens of active house fires here
on the north side of the city of Camarillo. It
has been a devastating day for this town and you
could see that fire threat is continuing into the night.
This entire area is under a mandatory evacuation order and
(19:57):
will remain so into tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
Reporting Live Mare seven Chris Christy.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
ABC, ABC Channel seven.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Here's an update a little while ago on the Mountain fire.
Multiple multiple houses burned in the dozens and a lot
of them. Five six thousand square foot homes, three four
five million dollar homes.
Speaker 9 (20:16):
Easily throughout the afternoon, We've been trying to keep tracking
come up with a rough number. We're talking about many dozens.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Of homes, many dozens, three four five dozen, could be
sixty seventy homes. And tomorrow, when you wake up and
you turn the TV on, you're getting up by getting
your coffee and you're going to go to work, maybe
you're listening to KFI and then you watch a little
bit of TV, you're going to see it just devastate
like a war zone tomorrow in camerion.
Speaker 9 (20:44):
Many dozens of homes that have burned to the ground
here in Camera Rio.
Speaker 5 (20:49):
Throughout this section of the city.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
You could see the foothills near the left side of
your screen there and as you come down the more
densely populated flats continuing to burn. As the sunsets, you
could see each bright spot representing a separate house fire
that is ongoing.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
At this hour.
Speaker 9 (21:06):
It has been a devastating day here in the city
of Caberrio, this fire starting earlier.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
This morning and continuing to burn.
Speaker 9 (21:14):
Although the winds are starting to die down ever so slightly,
for the evening, this fire will be laying down. We're
talking ten thousand acres, not of brush or forestry, but
of suburban environment, as these homes are mostly a total loss.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Reporting and Sophie Flay was out there with ABC News
this is about fu about a half hour, maybe forty
minutes ago.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
We've talked to residents who've either had to evacuate or
have chosen to stay behind, some who are very close
to those evacuation zones. And with Angela Bernson, who has
been monitoring all of this, like many residents, watching this
with great concern as she sees what's happening up in
the mountain. Angela, You've been watching all day, all morning, afternoon.
(22:02):
You've been a resident of Camrio for more than fifty years.
What has the state been like and what are you watching.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
It's been extremely devastating to watch just you know, three
two and a half, three miles away. You're just watching
the mountaintop, you know house and then another house just
going up in flames, and then you know, helicopters going
(22:29):
around your house, and it's just been it's been a
very devastating day for the city of Camrio. You know,
it's very quiet here, just very devastating.
Speaker 10 (22:43):
We see one of those properties. I'm not sure if
you're able to capture that through the lens by. There
was a really large property that was on fire. We
see some of those flames. It's still there, you know.
Speaker 12 (22:57):
Yeah, like that that house right there seem like it
went away and then now is starting to flare back up.
So we're seeing a lot of that, and then you know,
the win is just picking that up and going into
another property and then taking that house.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
And it's really tough because the news people who went
up there, you know Channel two, four, five, eleven, nine seven,
they have to be very careful not to intrude on
the worst day of these people's lives, on some of them,
and yet they have to get the news out there
(23:35):
because the only way you get, you know, FEMA and
natural disaster zones and money from the county, the state,
the federal government is if it's on the news every
single second, and then politicians will see it and they
will they'll have to react to it and they will
(23:57):
send money. So it's a very fine line that they draw,
you know, to interview somebody who on their worst day,
But to get that news out there is beneficial for
the people live up there because they will get more money,
more help, more support the more we get the word
out there, and that's why a lot of that's one
of the reasons why a lot of them are out there.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
A six.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I'm sure Mo Kelly updates for you.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
If you have big animals up in Ventura, cattle horses,
take them to the Ventura Ferry, Ventura County Fairgrounds, ten
East Harbor Boulevard right now that Crown Plaza, right off
the pier for small animals. Six hundred Aviation Drive in Camrio,
that's the Ventura County Animal Services six hundred Aviation Drive
(24:48):
right near the airport and evacuation shelter Padre Sarah Parish
Padre Sarah Parish fifty two five Upland Avenue in Camio.
The fire in Malibu fifteen percent contain the Mountain fire,
the bigger one in Camrio. It doesn't say anything about containment.
(25:08):
Over ten thousand, four hundred and fifty acres have burned.
So we'll have updates for you all night long. But
be careful out there, even if you're not in came
Rio or in Malibu, maybe an Orange County riverside San Bernardino.
These winds are going to continue all night long and
into tomorrow as well.
Speaker 8 (25:26):
We're still in time to secure any of those loose
outdoor items charger devices. As Lauren, we're seeing there's a
possibility for some power shut ups and also just some
power outages. Be careful where you park. There's a big
chance that we could see some uprooted trees. We don't
want any damage to your car, so put it in
a garage somewhere.
Speaker 13 (25:44):
Avoid travel if you can.
Speaker 8 (25:45):
Especially high profile vehicles. Today it's going to be very
challenging on the roads, and stay informed with our First
Alert weather team. Now, the biggest concern here is fire danger.
We have red flag warnings that cover most of southern California,
but there are areas where we.
Speaker 13 (26:01):
Are more concerned.
Speaker 8 (26:02):
We have extreme fire risk through the mountains of La
and Ventura County through Santa Clarita, and we have critical
fire danger extending over the La County Mountains, through the
San Bernardino Mountains, over into the Inland Empire and the
Santa Ana Mountains. Who avoid using anything that could create
a spark today.
Speaker 13 (26:21):
And here's the weather setup.
Speaker 8 (26:23):
It's the system that's digging down into the rockies.
Speaker 13 (26:26):
Yesterday was in the Great Basin.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
And you know, up in San Francisco, the entire city
of San Francisco, the entire San Francisco Bay Area, San Jose,
all that entire Oakland, that whole area is under the
same exact watch we are right now. The fire danger
is exactly the same up in northern California as it
(26:48):
is here in southern California. So wherever you go, it's
just the whole state is getting wiped up.
Speaker 8 (26:54):
Yesterday it was in the Great Basin, but this system
really is increasing those through the mountain passes in canyons.
It's got very cold air, so unlike some of those
warmer saturay Ana wind events, this system is going to
be a cold one, So the winds that are channeling
through those mountain passes and canyons are going to be chilly.
Speaker 13 (27:13):
Later this week.
Speaker 8 (27:14):
That's when we're going to see an improvement, not really
until we get into Friday, even Saturday, the weather really
is shaping up to be fine.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
But okay, So the weather, it's going to be freezing,
very very cold here in southern California. Up in Big Bear.
Be low tonight, I think is twenty nine degrees in
Big Bear thirty one Tomorrow, thirty seven on Friday, it
doesn't warm up to the forties until Saturday. Even here
locally in the San Fernando Valley, tonight's low is going
(27:42):
to be forty six.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Degrees, so fairly cold.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
In Malibu, Santa Monica out near the ocean, these Santa
Ana winds usually heat the ocean up or heat the
coastline up, but not this one. Forty eight, forty seven,
forty six degrees, forty nine, forty nine, forty nine, So
it's going to be in the forties for the entire
week at night for your low's in Orange County a
(28:11):
little bit better in Orange County, not as cold. Irvine
area Orange County forty seven tonight forty nine on Friday
and Saturday for the low. So it's going to be
very very cold outside, especially up in the mountains Lancaster
and the Annelov Valley thirty one degrees tonight, freezing thirty
(28:33):
five thirty eight, forty thirty nine. It's not going to
get into the forties until Tuesday of next week, so
the nighttime low will be in the low to mid
thirties for the Anelope Valley all week long. Freezing, just freezing,
freezing weather. If you're wandering out today and you're wondering
(28:55):
why there are so many people at the Glendale Galleria,
that's because Mookie Bets is there. He got there around
about fifty five minutes ago at six o'clock. I don't
know if you can still slide in there or not,
but Mookie Bets with the La Dodgers at the Glendale
Gallleria right now signing autographs. So if you have some
(29:17):
time you want to slide over there, you can get
an autograph from maybe if you get in.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
I don't know if you can get in.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
I know they're given out wristbands earlier, and if you
can get in.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Mookie bets.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
A lot of the Dodgers are out around the community
giving back, autographing merchandise, shirts, hats, pictures, posters, and thanking
the fans for showing up in such huge numbers, not
only during the World Series, but afterwards for the parade
and the big celebration at Dodgers Stadium as well.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
So Mookie bets tonight.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
The positive news, he's at the Glendale Gallerya signing autographs
right now. The bad news is the fire in Malibu
and the Mountain fire.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
They remain.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Wildly devastating to everybody in that area. If you haven't
seen any photos, maybe working all day, you're in the
car driving home, flip on some of the local news
tonight nine ten o'clock, eleven o'clock, and you'll see what
we've been talking about all day.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
These fires are are just horrible.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
It's huge homes in Ventura, a lot of them, you know,
old been there for thirty, forty fifty years, some of
these families, and literally in twenty minutes, everything's gone. Everything's gone.
And at some point, you know, in your sixties, seventies, eighties,
you don't have the money or the time or the
(30:41):
energy to replace it. And where you thought you'd be
spending the rest of your life, in your single family home.
Your whole life has changed, and so we can. You know,
hearts go out to the people that have been devastated
by this horrible, horrible fire.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
We'll have updates all night.
