This fire burned a total of 20 acres on the south side of hwy 74 near Bee Canyon Rd east of Hemet. There were 6 starts in this location due to a car having a problem.

So, I'm curious. What kind of car problem starts a fire?

No good deed goes unpunished.

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me alone.

I have seen other fires on the 15 caused by the Catalytic Converter and other sparky type stuff.
CY, Thank you so much for covering this fire. You do great work. For those that don't know CY (firephoto84), he is a profressional photographer and does freelance work for several websites (including here SCM). His coverage is incredible so be sure to support his cause at his site: [Click Here]

Wow, That one is interesting. Almost looks like someone being ejected by the fire. If I didn't know better would think that that was a Stuntchik party.
Great photo

When a catalytic converter fails, it often crumbles, spilling very hot ceramic pieces out the tail pipe. When there are multiple starts along a roadside, this is often why.

What doesn't kill me does NOT make me stronger. It makes me anxious, bitchy, and vulnerable...but nobody wants to see that embroidered on a pillow...Lisa Kogan...thx LXL...sorry i stole it from you! Ok, maybe I'm not sorry :-P

Thanks R. I have heard several cases of this happening, but wasn't sure what was actually causing then
