OAK GLEN - Calfire information officer Jason Meyer said fire commanders are evacuating the entire town of Oak Glen.
Oak Glen residents are being advised to head to safety via Oak Glen Road, heading in a southeasterly direction toward the Banning and Beaumont area.

Flames are towering about 100 feet into the air, Meyer said.

Meyer said he has not received information that residents are under a mandatory evacuation order. An evacuation center has not yet been established.

The fire, which has been named the Oak Glen Fire, has spread to more than 200 acres. Meyer said the blaze is burning in the hills south of Oak Glen and Potato Canyon roads in highly-flammable chaparral terrain."

 <o Wanted to add my thanks to Nino and Ruth for opening their air conditioned home to us.

Great food, cold drinks, =19 and the chance to drive a 1942 Ford Tractor in the back corral.

Special thanks to Ruth for running the Margaretta Ville bar with cool smoothies and fresh drinks.  <L
Hope all is well with Nino's house, as the fires are closer than comfort.

Thanks to Nino for bringing out his Nitro powered remote control dune buggy.  <2

So we had flying monkeys, out of control R/C cars, a 3 speed 24 hp tractor, a cool swiming pool, neighbor in full size 4 seater dune buggys, a snake named Freddy, goats across the street, and a tour of Nino's fortress of solitude featuring momentos from all 9 (or was it 10) VOI's he has attended.

Are the Viper stop, Annies Apple Bakery, stores and shops still standing in Oak Glen?  Have been trying to find out some information, so far not much in the way of news, so I guess that is good news.
