last week hadn’t prompted an evacuation of her neighborhood. She fell asleep.
Although she already had what she calls her “apocalypse bag” in the car, Taylor was so nervous she grabbed extra toiletries, toothbrushes, clothes and water. She put her Pomeranian, Bu, in his carrier; grabbed a 36-by-24-inch painting of her two children and swaddled it in pillowcases; and loaded her car.
Roberta Shintani and her son, Kevin, were also woken at 3 a.m. Their roommate told them the police had come by and said they needed to go. Two years ago, when flames lashed the hillsides above the 405, Roberta and Kevin had prepared to evacuate but ultimately weren’t required to. Not this time.
