Dry north winds in the forecast in the AM. We have ash fall in Sac right now and a red moon.

Just found some pics online of my moms "house". Here's whats left. Hope this ends soon so no one else has to go through this. Luckily we are all safe and its just stuff.

Hey D

Sorry to hear about the house, hope she is handling it well. Tough year for her. Obviously reach out if you need help with anything short or long term.

Long night last night but about midnight the winds shifted and the fire slowed.

No evac orders given.

Red flag coming back tonight so fingers crossed right now.

Still no power. Got cell service back last night though so not as disconnected as we were.

What will the long term affects of these fires be?

Will it cause a real estate value drop? Loss of wine businesses will hurt.

I expect prices will go up since the supply was just decimated.

Long term? None.
Short term, two years or so, good luck finding competent contractor.

If you rebuild in a burnt out zone, you're safe from fires for a while, but you aren't from mudslides.

My parents, uncle, and grandmother's homes still stand as of right now, but only time and wind will tell.

I'm going to buy all of CalFire a beer after this is done. Seriously. I can do that.

Car is covered in small flakes of ash this morning in Sacramento. Went flying in the valley yesterday, and holy smokes batman. It was thick.

Ash and smoke down here in Danville as well. None yesterday.

Wind is picking up. I am on edge from the stress. I honestly don't know if I could do this again. Thanks for being here. Knowing that there is some support helps. Wish I could do more.

Sucks to see all this destruction.

There is going to be a massive rebuilding effort after these fires are extinguished.

They are being super cautious this time so don't think that it's"right there" based on where they are responding.

They learned from last time.

I work at 3000 Tannery road in Santa Clara and we can barely see Levi Stadium. The hvac unit on the buildings can't keep up. It smells of wild fire in the building.

Mandatory evacuation order for Calistoga. If anyone you know is there, or if you are in the area, please get out now!!!!!

Parts of Fairfield are under evacuation orders as of this afternoon.

The foothills near Oroville and Grass Valley are also dealing with fires, loss of life and structures.
