Raging Wine Country Wildfires Burn Homes; Force Evacuations
CBS SF Bay Area News ^ | 10/08/2017 | CBS Staff

NAPA (CBS SF) — Wind-whipped wildfires roared to life Sunday night and early Monday across Wine Country, burning building, forcing evacuations and injuring several people.

The Atlas Peak fire was the largest of several wildfires, quickly growing to more than 200 acres near Napa. Meanwhile, the fire near Calistoga had burned several building and sent several people to the hospital to be treated for burns.

Cal Fire said firefighters were battling several blazes in Sonoma County. The largest was in the area of Porter Creek Road and Petrified Forest Road near Calistoga where mandatory evacuations were ordered for residents along Porter Creek, Petrified Forest, Franz Valley and Mountain Home Ranch Rd.

Early Monday morning, the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Department said fires had erupted at Mark West Springs and Riebli roads in Santa Rosa, at Shiloh and Conde roads in Windsor and at Highway 116 and Fredericks Road in Sebastopol.

The fires had stretched Sonoma and Napa counties firefighting resources to the breaking point. A call for mutual aid was issued to other Bay Area fire departments.

I think the better path is to chastise offenders and remind them that real people live in places that might be “blue states.” Also that conceding territory to the left is not a winning strategy. Forget Calexit and similar nonsense.

Every thread defames California. Let it secede, good riddance. Hope an earthquake destroys it. Let the Norks nuke it. Let it burn, I can't work up any sympathy. I would say we'll more than half here hold those views. Only when people die do the comments boil over into ghoulishness.

Kudos to the Kaiser health care workers, nurses, doctors and volunteers who evacuated patients in the hospital.

Kaiser is great health care, and if a patient is in a hospital, they are really sick.

So those patients were really sick and needed a lot of help from others.

Yes, agree with all of what you said! The folks helping also did a good job of evacuating nursing home residents—another group that needed a lot of help from others!

Good, they were/are like the NFL Thugs trashing our flag with their total disrespect of what is happening out here.

The Death toll is now 23 with over 200+ people known to be missing.

There are red flag warnings over both counties re high winds tonight and tomorrow.

My friend left downtown Sonoma a couple of hours ago. They say that Petaluma issued a caution for people to be alert and consider getting things ready due to the high winds.


Wow, just seem to be continuing to spread...devastate one area and then go to the next :(
