SoCal Edison Reports ‘Circuit Activity' Close to Start of Laguna Niguel Fire
Southern California Edison says it has notified state utility regulators that "circuit activity" was detected at about the same time a brush fire started in the hills above the Orange County coast and quickly burned uphill into a neighborhood.
The Coastal Fire was reported around 2:45 p.m. Wednesday in Aliso Woods Canyon near Laguna Niguel. Fanned by ocean winds, flames tore through thick brush in the canyon and climbed over the top of the ridgeline and cast wind-strewn embers onto homes.
When will they learn to stop blowing taxpayer money on solar and wind - these are both will-'o'-the-wisp ephemera that are not baseload generation. Spend your money on rebuilding the infrastructure. I know that alt.energy is sexy - it looks good to the proles but that needs to be the icing on the cake. Something you do after everything else has been taken care of.
Another round of lawsuits (here for starters) will be in order this fall - this fire is just the beginning...
