Tea Wildfire Anniversary, Nov 13, 2008

Location: Santa Barbara County - City of Montecito
Notes: Tonight in 2008 a brush fire began from a seemingly-extinguished campfire in the hills above Montecito during a Sundowner Wind event. The fire raged throughout the evening consuming 210 homes and charring 1,940 acres. Two people were critically-burned and Westmont College sustained heavy damaged with the destruction of multiple structures on the campus. Actor Christopher Lloyd lost his home in the fire.
