Hi DW… we had the police boot us out later in the afternoon, like 3 or 4 pm. I was up on Spring Canyon watching the progress and could not figure out why they were pulling the trigger so early…however I am not a fireman…. yet I was clearly irritated.
We tried Spring Canyon south to get out… no go… then Pomerado… no go… so we snuck out via Avenida Magnifica and the interior roads which were not to bad. I think that since they had the evac order so early, they (the police) had no problem with the exit routes being clogged up. Like you said if flames were imminent they would most likely have closed eastbound lanes and let everyone flood thier way out.
