Cause?
So.... what are the odds that terrorists (illegal immigrants/refugees from any Islamic Nation,etc) started this fire ?
Reading the Twitter feed. This sounds EXTREMELY serious.

Bad scene.
I grew up in Lake County, but don’t live there now. This is a VERY BAD fire. In a normal year the area is very dry, but this year it is unbelievably bad. There are a lot of people with no way to escape. Pray for the residents and the fire crews.

#ValleyFire [update] off High Valley Road and Bottle Rock Road, Cobb (Lake County) is now 25,000 acres.

Looks like it was a quiet middle class town.
Prayers up.
Thank goodness they escaped. That is such beautiful country there.
Sad for him, but good that they got out. I have a friend in Lake County. He spent several decades accumulating car parts and memorabilia for his business restoring vintage cars. No way he'd be able to move a fraction of it, many dozens of vintage cars, hundreds of car body parts. I hope he's okay. His property is nestled among many large trees in a forest. Also have a sister in Sonoma in the forested hills. Very pretty place to live, but scary if a fire comes in.
