Major brush fire in and around Napa. Evacuations started.

Major brush fire in and around Napa. Evacuations started.
Aparently this started overnight, and businesses in Napa are being damaged, including an ammunitions business. North Bay traffic is gridlock in some places.

I know there are a few bay area folks here. Hope you are doing well. Sacramento, not sure if you're affacted.

I was just up in that area one week ago. Shame to think of that beautiful area burning. But all is well here in the bay area for now. Hope the hills around San Diego don't have issues this year.

Yeah, San Diego County has its moments, but nothing akin to what we have right now, which seems to be (in seperate fires) involving locations from Berkeley all the way to Willits, up in Mendocino County, according to a map they had on ABC 7.

Most of the fires were probably started by terrorists.

teetotalers already ruled out ?
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Not aware of anything happening in Berkeley but the wind was strong yesterday.  Will check.

I think I misunderstood Berkeley. I think historically there might have been a fire there, possibly with 25 fatalities (death count in these fires is somewhere around 11, mostly in Santa Rosa).
