Veronique has updates on the fire at Here in Malibu. Last I heard, 35 structures had burned and 200 more were threatened, mostly in the Corral Canyon area and the Malibu Bowl. I was just up there yesterday and it felt like things in the community were returning to normal, and spots like Neptune's Net, the Starbucks at Trancas and the beach at Free Zuma were all busy with a pleasant holiday vibe. Last time around, Veronique's blog became an essential community information source. This time, the flames are closer to her in Paradise Cove, but still not visible.
