Exactly...
If the above is true, and it is, someone was asleep at the wheel. Both the Harbor Patrol and author of the first hand account appeared to have ample time to pre plan.
Scary pretty well sums up the rest. Predicting Santa Ana winds and their effects is not exactly rocket science. Yes "stuff happens" but in this case it sure seems as though a lot of stuff happened that really makes you scratch your head.
Now what information led to the call to move the dinghy dock and the author to move his family ashore?
