My News LA:  Evacuation Orders Lift For Bobcat Fire

LAist:  How The Pandemic Is Making Information About Wildfires More Accessible Than Ever Before

Is the Angeles National Forest tweeting #BobcatFire updates at you? Have you stumbled across a YouTube tutorial on fire behavior or attended a community evacuation briefing on Zoom? You're the beneficiary of a pandemic-caused pivot of fire agencies to put more communications online.  For decades, fire managers relied on in-person news briefings and community meetings in high school gyms to inform the public about big wildland fires. It was efficient — for the fire agencies. But it was up to reporters and the public to show up and make sense of the fire talk to gauge the risk to homes. In recent years, fire information officers had been experimenting with social media platforms to augment those in-person gatherings.  But now — no more baby steps. This year, the pandemic made it impractical and potentially unsafe to pack a few hundred neighbors — or a cluster of reporters — into a small space for an update from fire managers.
