WEBVTT 1 00:00:22.239 --> 00:00:25.079 KFIM six forty years later with Mo Kelly. We're live 2 00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:28.480 everywhere on the iHeartRadio app and as you've been listening 3 00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:32.200 to KFI, we've been continuing our coverage of multiple fires 4 00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:37.240 throughout southern California. Let's first check in with Chris Adler, 5 00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:41.320 who is reporting from the Tribuco Canyon or Airport fire 6 00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:42.079 right now. 7 00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:44.200 Chris, how are you? Are you safe? 8 00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:45.880 I am thanks moo. 9 00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:48.719 You know what people are are followers on social media 10 00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:52.759 and we're with how fashionable my jacket is as supposed 11 00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:53.600 to my safety? 12 00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:56.119 But no, mo, I am, I am watching. 13 00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:58.960 I'm watching the bills of smoke right now that are 14 00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:02.399 rising up from the can in. There are flames scattered 15 00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:06.439 throughout the canyon, so it's in multiple areas as we speak. 16 00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:12.359 I'm watching airplanes drop retardant and water from helicopters. Now, 17 00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:15.920 as the sun goes down, the helicopters might still be 18 00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.000 able to fly, but the planes for safety will not 19 00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:22.879 be dropping this retardant, so that will stop this evening. 20 00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:27.400 But the water drops, I'm told mice may still continue 21 00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:31.359 throughout the night. But the smoke has turned from a 22 00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:33.760 gray to a red as the sun. 23 00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:35.640 Is setting here in Tribuco Canyon. 24 00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:37.040 Well, let's reset. 25 00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:39.799 This fire began around one thirty pm along the thirty 26 00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:43.439 two two hundred block of Tribuco Creek Road, near the 27 00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:47.959 Tribuco Flyers Club. More than two thousand acres have been 28 00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:50.959 burned from your information, from what you can see, have 29 00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:54.439 there been any structures which have been damaged. 30 00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:59.719 At this time, there's it's zero percent surrounded. But firefighters 31 00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:04.159 say they are not concerned because it's blowing upward and outward, 32 00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:07.040 and they say that right now no homes are threatened. 33 00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:11.879 There were some mandatory evacuations for some areas warnings for others. 34 00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:15.120 We saw people coming down leading horses and other livestock 35 00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:18.520 down the road, trying to get the horses out just. 36 00:02:18.919 --> 00:02:21.199 For safety in case this does take a turn. 37 00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:25.400 But right now there are no homes threatened and no 38 00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:27.280 homes have been touched by this fire. 39 00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:30.280 You're telling us there's a lot going on as far 40 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.000 as these retardant drops. What is the air quality like? 41 00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:36.439 Is it easy to breathe or is there a high 42 00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:37.319 level of smoke? 43 00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:40.639 You know what, it's blowing away. 44 00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.439 However, from where I'm standing here at this base, where 45 00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:48.800 I'm surrounded by cal fire trucks and firefighters who it 46 00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:51.879 seems like they're going in and coming out in waves, 47 00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:54.479 some going in, some coming out, just back and forth. 48 00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:58.000 And from this point it's cloudy. You know, there's a bit, 49 00:02:58.199 --> 00:02:58.840 there's a little. 50 00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:00.840 Bit of coughing going on, but for the most part, 51 00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:03.759 the firefighters where I'm at or not wearing the respirators. 52 00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:06.240 I'm not wearing my respirator right now. As I was 53 00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.080 coming up through the canyon, I did start to cough 54 00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:10.680 a bit in certain areas. 55 00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:14.080 But the wind is blowing this fire. It's blowing away. 56 00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:16.879 It seems to be blowing away from us from the 57 00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:20.759 direction of the smoke, and so right now, you know, 58 00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:24.199 the people were concerned that this might shift and it 59 00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:27.240 might go towards homes, but at this point it's not 60 00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:27.879 doing that. 61 00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:28.120 Mo. 62 00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:30.599 But the firefighters say, you know, they're they're going to 63 00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:32.759 be watching this, they're going to be fighting this fighter 64 00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:36.159 fire throughout the night. And there's about there's more than 65 00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:39.680 one thousand firefighters from multiple agencies, some from out of state, 66 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.120 even from Arizona, who are here to. 67 00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:43.199 Fight this fire. 68 00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:46.719 Okay, when you say that there are some coming from 69 00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:49.360 Arizona I'm quite sure someone who is listening to this 70 00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:52.319 and knowing that there are multiple major fires going on 71 00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:54.639 right now, may be concerned about resources. 72 00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:57.719 Have any of the firefighters. 73 00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.919 There talk to you or express concern about having enough 74 00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:04.680 resources to not only fight this fire, but possibly not 75 00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:07.120 be spread too thin to deal with the other fires. 76 00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:10.879 Absolutely, and that is always a concern for the firefighters. 77 00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:13.080 When I was at the command post speaking with OC 78 00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:15.719 Fire Authority, they said, you know, this is a reminder 79 00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:19.439 that these fires can shift. They can shift quickly with 80 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:21.920 the Santa Ana winds and the dry weather and the 81 00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:24.959 dry brush. This is a vegetation fire. They don't know 82 00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:27.680 exactly how it started, but the firefighters say, this is 83 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:31.160 a reminder that these fires can spread. We've got multiple 84 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:33.600 fires going on right now, and it's a reminder for 85 00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:37.319 people to to be prepared and be ready and be 86 00:04:37.439 --> 00:04:40.839 ready for evacuations because a fire can pop up at 87 00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:44.480 any time anywhere in southern California, and they want the 88 00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:46.000 public to be prepared. 89 00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:48.920 From what we can see, we don't know what necessarily 90 00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:49.720 started the fire. 91 00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:50.800 Is that correct? 92 00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:52.160 That's correct. 93 00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:56.040 They don't know. We don't have any report on what 94 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:58.759 started it. When I asked firefighters. They said, that's still, 95 00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:01.959 of course under investigation. But he said, you know, with 96 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:05.000 the heat and the wind and the dryness in the area, 97 00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:08.199 he says, basically, it's not surprising they do at this 98 00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.240 time of year typically do get fires in this region. 99 00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:14.560 So you know, it's not certain. 100 00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:19.319 We don't have a definitive answer as to what exactly caused. 101 00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:22.360 The fire did start after just before one thirty. 102 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:26.240 But what is interesting about this fire is how quickly 103 00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:30.319 it has grown to nearly two thousand acres and just 104 00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:31.839 a matter of hours. 105 00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:35.360 Well, we know that it's been, you know, inescapably hot 106 00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:37.759 no matter where you've been in southern California. We know 107 00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.839 that this hot weather has played a role. But have 108 00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:43.639 firefighters expressed to you as far as how much of 109 00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:47.720 a role this heat wave has played in either spreading 110 00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.720 the fire, growing the fire, or impacting the fire. 111 00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:54.800 Yeah, so the heat, they say, the heat making it 112 00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:59.360 so so so dry, the ground so dry, and even 113 00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:02.079 though we have all of that rain over the last 114 00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:05.439 few years, and so we had a very rainy winter 115 00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:07.759 season last season, the. 116 00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:09.519 Ground is dry right now. 117 00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:13.360 If we had had if we had had much more rain, 118 00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:16.199 this fire may not be as big as it was 119 00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:18.920 as it is, so that's why OC fire authority is 120 00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:24.360 saying the dryness of the vegetation, how dry it is 121 00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:27.480 is is the reason why this is spreading so quickly. 122 00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:30.160 Chris Thatdler, of course, be safe out there. 123 00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:32.360 I can't see you, so I can't comment on what 124 00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.639 you're wearing, but I care about your safety more than anything. 125 00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:37.680 Thank you for checking in with us, and we know 126 00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:39.519 you're going to be out there. We'll probably hear from 127 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:40.600 you again later on tonight. 128 00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:42.160 Is that correct? You be checking in with the news, Joe. 129 00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:44.360 We'll check in a little bit later with an update. 130 00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:46.160 All right, it's later with Mo Kelly. 131 00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:48.759 Now we'll check in with Corbyn Carson on the other 132 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:50.639 side of this break and find out what is happening 133 00:06:50.680 --> 00:07:04.839 with the line fire with Kelly six Fri live everywhere 134 00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:07.279 on the iHeartRadio app and as we continue to get 135 00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:10.480 at least the latest with these multiple fires going on, 136 00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:13.920 not just in southern California but extending as far as 137 00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:16.079 the Veda. You may have heard the news by now 138 00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:19.759 that Governor Gavin Newsom has activated the National Guard in 139 00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:23.839 response to the massive line fire in San Berdanino County, 140 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:27.000 where at last I checked over eleven thousand people were 141 00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:31.680 under evacuation orders. Right now, we have kfi's own Corbyn Carson, 142 00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:34.800 who is on scene with his eye view of what's 143 00:07:34.839 --> 00:07:36.879 going on. Corbyin i' i ask you, as I asked 144 00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:38.680 Chris Adler, first, are you safe? 145 00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:43.120 Yeah, currently very safe, but looking at these bright orange 146 00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:47.360 flames that have started dotting the mountain ridge lines here 147 00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:49.839 and in mentone. This is at the base of the 148 00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:52.759 fire where a lot of this was really threatening homes. 149 00:07:52.759 --> 00:07:56.279 It's moved more east, which has taken this dark haze 150 00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:58.759 with it and making it a lot easier. 151 00:07:58.680 --> 00:07:59.800 To see these fires. 152 00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:01.519 But we've got a lot of information here in the 153 00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:04.600 last May I'm about the last hour from fire officials. 154 00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:09.240 One of the better news is that the fire is 155 00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:14.839 now surrounded five percent. They crews have surrounded the fire 156 00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:17.360 five percent. It was three percent for most of the day, 157 00:08:17.399 --> 00:08:20.720 so that is some good news. This thing is currently 158 00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:23.399 listed at more than twenty three out one thousand acres. 159 00:08:23.439 --> 00:08:27.279 There has not been any buildings or homes damaged to burn. 160 00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:30.759 That's also some good news. And really it was really 161 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:32.840 hot when I got here. That's what these firefighters are 162 00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:35.559 dealing with. You've been hearing that it's also a little 163 00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:37.759 bit of win kicked up here and now and again, 164 00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:40.240 but now again the concern is I'm looking at flames 165 00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:43.480 across the ridge here and then more into the fire 166 00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:46.039 as it moves, as it's moving more. 167 00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:46.919 East in this direction. 168 00:08:47.799 --> 00:08:51.360 Multiple agencies had just provided that new intion. Like I said, 169 00:08:51.399 --> 00:08:55.320 that there's still that thirty six thousand homes that are threatened. 170 00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:59.200 San Bernardino County Fire Protection District Chief Dan Monsley says 171 00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:02.519 when the fire floaded over the weekend, he was really concerned. 172 00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:03.759 But this is what it is now. 173 00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:06.720 The fire is still danger. Yesterday, I was worried about 174 00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:10.480 Angel Soaks Mountain Home village. I was worried about forest falls. 175 00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:14.080 The fires make any eastern project movement, and it still 176 00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:15.440 has the possibility of doing that. 177 00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:16.919 We've been challenged by the weather. 178 00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:20.720 Besides being very hot and as you know, trout and 179 00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:25.799 the historic low temperatures or excuse me, low humidity and 180 00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:30.320 fuel moistures. These thunderstorms have been moving this fire around. 181 00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:34.080 Today the fire is moving northeast, and we're concerned with 182 00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:35.200 the citizens of Big Bear. 183 00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:40.080 So now that movement that was moving just east and 184 00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:43.000 they're still kind of battling these stubborn flames along the 185 00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:46.879 ridgeline above the Angelus Oaks area. They're now also starting 186 00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:49.480 to push of a little bit more concern towards bigs 187 00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:52.480 bears as you heard there. So during the night they're 188 00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:54.559 going to be looking for some cooperation from the weather. 189 00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:57.559 Hopefully that the temperatures drop again as they're supposed to 190 00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.279 over the next few days. That could be good, but 191 00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:02.200 a lot of work here to still be done. 192 00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:06.039 The reason I asked you about this is because if 193 00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:08.759 you were safe, because usually with these big fires it 194 00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:11.320 may not be close to structures, but there's always a 195 00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:13.679 question of air quality, I asked Chris Hadler, and I'm 196 00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.519 asking you as well, given the size of this fire, 197 00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:20.120 which is much larger than the Tribuco Canyon fire, what 198 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:21.440 is the air quality like? 199 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:23.600 Oh, it's been bad all day. 200 00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:26.200 I mean it's people from I was coming from Orange 201 00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:29.120 County this afternoon. You could see that dark haze that 202 00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:31.120 everybody's pretty much been able to see all the way 203 00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:33.200 over there in Orange County. And this was before the 204 00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:36.799 new fire sparked off in Tribuco Canyon and it has 205 00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:39.799 extended all the way in my drive across Orange County 206 00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:42.679 to San Bernardino County, and it was so bad when 207 00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:44.440 I first got here, you couldn't even see the San 208 00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:47.960 Bernardino Mountains. It was just blacked out in this kind 209 00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:52.039 of gloomy, dark smoke that you couldn't really see deep. 210 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.720 And then as that started moving east with the light 211 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:57.039 wind or whatever, you could start seeing a little bit 212 00:10:57.039 --> 00:10:59.039 more of the ridgeline, which started showing some of these 213 00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:01.480 spot fires we're seeing now that crews are trying to 214 00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:03.919 get in and clean up. And when I say spotfires, 215 00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:07.039 you're thinking something small. These are pretty big fires. It's 216 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:09.960 just that these mountains are so large they look small 217 00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:13.559 from the distance as the closest that you can get 218 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:15.480 to them. And one of the other interesting things that 219 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:19.559 we heard from officials here in this recent news briefing 220 00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:23.320 is about evacuation orders and about the resources that are 221 00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:25.759 really kicking up thanks to the governor's order. One of 222 00:11:25.759 --> 00:11:28.240 the big people talking about that with San Bernardino County 223 00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.840 Sheriff Shan and Dikis. He says there's multiple resources to 224 00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:34.440 help out with the evacuations and of course the protection 225 00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:35.240 of people's homes. 226 00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:42.080 That's Barstal PD, Culton PD, Montclair, Redlands upland Chino, Fontana, Ontario, 227 00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:46.639 Rialto and Saramonydino PDEs Pino Fontana, Ontario, Realto and Saramony 228 00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:51.639 Doin PDEs. That increased our surge from approximately thirty people 229 00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:54.720 in the mountains and thirty people down in the valley 230 00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:57.720 to about seventy each day, and as of today, that 231 00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:00.320 surge is now increased to one hundred and fifty and 232 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.720 of the operational period this evening, we'll almost be doubling 233 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:08.080 those numbers with the National Guard who have been preplaced 234 00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:11.559 by the Governor in state oes at the National Guard 235 00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.200 Armory in Ontario, and we'll be deploying them. 236 00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:17.080 So a lot of resources will be out there. 237 00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:19.879 Already, he was talking about some people trying to take 238 00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:21.039 advantage of the situation. 239 00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:24.960 We've only had one case of a potential of burglary 240 00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:28.200 or looter and those subjects have been arrested. 241 00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:29.480 Just like I said, I. 242 00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:32.759 Am telling anybody right now if you haven't an arrest 243 00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:35.200 more or anything, and you enter these areas, we've had 244 00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:38.000 a number of arrests already. One in particular was a 245 00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:41.200 motorcycle rider on a stolen motorcycle that entered that meet 246 00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:44.080 and they are now in jail. We are not messing around, 247 00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:47.279 and like I said earlier, your homes are our homes 248 00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:49.200 and we're going to be all of this. I don't 249 00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:52.720 have an overriding concern that there are looting crews or anything. 250 00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:54.200 Like that in our area, but he said, really the 251 00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:59.519 main reminder was to get ready when evacuation warnings are issued, 252 00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:02.360 and it's again similar to those areas that the fire 253 00:13:02.440 --> 00:13:05.159 is headed towards, like in Big Bear, and then heed 254 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:08.200 those evacuation orders when they are issued so fire crews 255 00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:10.440 can get in and do their job. What has been 256 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:13.120 brought up multiple times in these mountain areas when it 257 00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:16.799 comes to these evacuation orders is that there are limited 258 00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:20.279 ways in and out of these communities, and all that 259 00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.080 gets even trickier when fire and lawn fuseement enforcement crews 260 00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:24.600 have to get in and get out and try to 261 00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:27.600 protect homes and property and lives. And then on top 262 00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:30.279 of that you have any potential falling trees, power lines, 263 00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:32.240 and other issues that can get people trapped. 264 00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.919 We know from what you've told us that there has 265 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.720 been a surge and resources. You mentioned the number of 266 00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:41.960 participating law enforcement agencies. I can imagine that there are 267 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:46.480 a number of also participating out of area fire agencies 268 00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:48.480 as well. Do we have a number of how many 269 00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:51.559 different fire crews or agencies are involved. 270 00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:55.120 We have about seventeen hundred. More than seventeen hundred personnel 271 00:13:55.200 --> 00:13:57.799 that are on scene. We have all kinds of I'm 272 00:13:57.840 --> 00:14:01.000 just looking over the incident command here. They are one 273 00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:04.879 hundred and almost two hundred engines, water tenders, helicopters that 274 00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:08.000 are fifteen of them, including that Quick Reaction Force which 275 00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:12.399 is the CH forty seven Shinnooks, which those things can 276 00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:15.200 drop three thousand gallons of water per drop and they 277 00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:17.720 do it in tandem and it shared throughout southern California. 278 00:14:17.799 --> 00:14:20.120 So I know they're busy. They've already dropped a. 279 00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:24.000 Million gallons of water and fire retardant on eighty five 280 00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:26.039 fires this year, so I'm sure they're just hopping around 281 00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:29.840 from each of these different areas today. But again, on 282 00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:32.320 top of that, you have the thirty five dozers, thirty 283 00:14:32.360 --> 00:14:35.559 seven hand crews, and then the different agencies. You got Aarrowbear, 284 00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:39.039 you got California Conservation Corps, the Department of Corrections is 285 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.320 even in on this, and then of course the Governor's 286 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:45.720 Office caltrans. We heard from CHP just everybody really getting 287 00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:48.559 involved in trying to get this thing under control. 288 00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.759 Last question, just a quick summary. Is it one of optimism, 289 00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:56.039 a feeling of optimism because the temperature is looking to 290 00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:58.559 come down in the next day or two, How is 291 00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:00.480 the weather going to figure in this the next day 292 00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:02.080 or two that is. 293 00:15:02.080 --> 00:15:05.720 Gonna be up to the potential wind and any and 294 00:15:06.039 --> 00:15:09.000 the heat, and then you can just never understand these 295 00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.960 new thunderstorms and lightning strikes. One of the officials thousands 296 00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:17.519 of those over the last couple of days. So hopefully 297 00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:19.360 it's looking good that they're gonna get I mean, we 298 00:15:19.399 --> 00:15:23.120 saw the containment or the fires surrounded has doubled at 299 00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:26.279 least today. It was some positive work yesterday, so we're 300 00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.600 hoping through the night again this thing will lay down 301 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:30.879 and fire crews can really get some containment built. 302 00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:34.360 Corbyn Carson, thank you for that great update. I assume 303 00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:36.000 you're going to be out there for the rest of 304 00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:37.039 the evening and reporting. 305 00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:40.120 I'm never leaving this is now where I work from 306 00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:41.399 the remainder of katnam Jo. 307 00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:43.679 I'll be out here for some time. If you need 308 00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:44.360 me manage. 309 00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:47.440 One questure, we'll hear you. At least to KFI news Breaks. 310 00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:49.879 You got it, sir, It's Later with mokel. We have 311 00:15:49.879 --> 00:15:53.559 an update from Governor Newsom regarding THHC product regulations will 312 00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:54.320 go over next. 313 00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:58.519 You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from 314 00:15:58.600 --> 00:15:59.919 KFI AM six four. 315 00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:02.759 And this is a part of a longer conversation that 316 00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:05.440 I've been having with you for many years now. If 317 00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:07.960 you had even listened to the mo Kelly Show when 318 00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:11.200 I was on weekends here, I made it very clear 319 00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:15.159 I was for decriminalization, not legalization. I wasn't about the 320 00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:18.600 recreational use of marijuana. Wasn't my thing and it's never 321 00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:20.399 been my thing for a number of reasons. But some 322 00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:23.279 of the concerns that I said back then, and people 323 00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:24.679 said like, oh, you don't know what you're talking about. 324 00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:26.919 It is inevitable. Look, that has nothing to do with it. 325 00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:29.159 I wasn't ever going to support it, and I never 326 00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:33.200 will for number of reasons. But my concerns originally had 327 00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:35.840 to do with Number one, was it going to be 328 00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:40.200 regulated as far as the amount of THCHC in different products? 329 00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:45.000 Number Two, when it came to DUIs driving down the influence, 330 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:48.159 was there a test, a reliable test to find out 331 00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:51.600 whether someone was driving impaired as to what degree. When 332 00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:56.000 it came to THHC number three, the availability of products 333 00:16:56.039 --> 00:16:57.120 containing THC. 334 00:16:57.639 --> 00:16:58.720 Where I didn't. 335 00:16:58.440 --> 00:17:00.080 Believe even back then that it was going to be 336 00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:02.879 limited to just dispensaries. They're going to be these products 337 00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:05.519 which are going to pop up in grocery stores in 338 00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:09.880 other places because you know, because of what I saw 339 00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:10.599 is a lack of. 340 00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:13.400 Strict regulation of THC. Okay, lo and behold. 341 00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:16.759 Now a few years later, or more than a few 342 00:17:16.799 --> 00:17:20.400 years later, we are now seeing some of that calm 343 00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:21.000 to fruition. 344 00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:21.359 Now. 345 00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:24.559 Governor Newsom has proposed THHC product regulations. 346 00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:26.400 Oh my gosh, who ever thought about that? I did? 347 00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:29.839 Citing concerns about children accessibility, Oh my gosh, who thought 348 00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:30.240 about that? 349 00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:30.640 I did? 350 00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:35.160 Newsom proposes the emergency regulations to protect children from dangerous 351 00:17:35.160 --> 00:17:38.640 products containing THC. The governor says they're popping up in 352 00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:41.359 grocery and corner stores across the state. 353 00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:43.440 Oh my gosh, you're worried about that. Who said something 354 00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:45.759 about that? I know it sounds like Bill Clinton. I 355 00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:48.920 did not have sex with that woman, Hillary. I promise 356 00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:52.519 you what I know.

And even though I know the hip industry 377 00:18:54.839 --> 00:18:58.440 is worried about overregulation and how that may kill off 378 00:18:58.480 --> 00:19:02.440 some businesses, we talk to people who are in the 379 00:19:02.519 --> 00:19:07.279 legalized portion and the underground black market portion, and I 380 00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:11.319 know that it's a complex equation of trying to not 381 00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:16.319 hurt California legitimate businesses while at the same time trying 382 00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:19.759 to make sure that they are protected against the illicit, 383 00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:24.880 illegal black market weed and also making sure that there 384 00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:30.839 are protections for children. You know, it's I'm going to 385 00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:32.680 side with the governor on this one, and that may 386 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:34.880 not be popular, but I'm going to side with them 387 00:19:34.920 --> 00:19:37.799 because I want more stringent regulations when it comes to 388 00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:41.720 THHD products, where they're able to be bought and how 389 00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.960 much THC is there is there a level of consistency 390 00:19:46.079 --> 00:19:48.240 in the dosage, you know, in the in the same 391 00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:50.759 way that there is a lack of regulations of the 392 00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:55.279 supplements market, that is less focus on because you don't 393 00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:57.240 have as many potential issues with that. 394 00:19:59.319 --> 00:20:00.480 That's that's all I'm saying. 395 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.759 And this is maybe made this confirmation bias for me, 396 00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:05.680 but this is not something I'm never going to get behind. 397 00:20:05.720 --> 00:20:09.359 As far as the recreational use market. Look, the fact that. 398 00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:17.039 These plus signed shops have popped up almost on every 399 00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:23.640 other corner. They're as prevalent as liquor stores, churches, and 400 00:20:23.759 --> 00:20:29.640 Chinese food in the urban community almost in every other corner. 401 00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:35.960
