Good Luck to All Those Affected by the Southern California Fires

The law schools at the University of San Diego, California Western, and Pepperdine University are all closed today.  (Others may also be affected, but these are the ones I know about.)   Professor Tom Smith, on the USD law faculty, is writing about the fires here; he and his family have had to evacuate their home.  Coverage of the San Diego fires can be found here and this map shows the location of fires throughout Southern California.  Pretty scary.  Let us hope the winds die down soon!
