Calitics on the California Fires is our site of the day

Calitics, maintained by Brian Leubitz and Jeremy Woodburn, is a community blog site that focuses on California public policy issues and politics at a state and local level.

If you visit the site, you will see many different authors with distinct voices and approaches and a lot of comments from Californians (and elsewhere).

Since the fires have broken out in Southern California, they have had a variety of insights--dozens--that you can read by clicking here and going to their "fire" tagged posts. These include some "live blogging" by Lucas, who lives in San Diego and gave hour by hour observations of the fire.

There is also an excellent "Blog Roundup" where hundreds of postings in California and from outside our state but about California are sifted--and those that relate to current issues and politics in the state are listed with links many times per week, approaching a daily basis. Because of the hundreds of postings on other sites pertaining to the fires, there have been separate listings on that topic that is worth looking at to see what those with unique perspectives are thinking about the fire, its implications, how it is affecting them, and what can be done to help out.

A great site in ordinary times--and to get information about the fire.
