Oakmont neighborhood off of white oak drive in the eastern part of santa rosa. Take a look behind me. This is the annandale state park land. What you have here is a wildfire coming down the hill towards the homes in this neighborhood. Firefighters are taking a stand. They do not want this fire to spread into these neighborhoods, into the homes. So far there are no structures damaged. This is still just a wildfire. We are seeing firefighters here keeping a watchful eye. The biggest thing happening today is the fact that the winds have died down. If we were still experiencing the same winds as yesterday that were blowing 60 Miles Per Hour at some point in santa rosa, there is no way firefighters would be able to keep this fire from spreading into the neighborhoods. That is what has caused so much destruction throughout the city of santa rosa and the surrounding areas in Sonoma County. Again, firefighters are here on the scene. They are between this fire in the homes. What is incredible is, we are seeing firefighters we just past a truck from stanislau county. We are hearing that there are crews from as far away as bakersfield. Firefighters from los angeles are heading to napa. We have also been told the marin search and rescue teams are on the way.

This area was evacuated around midnight last night. All of the evacuated areas are still under curfew until 7 15 am this morning. If anyone is seen in those areas, they will be arrested immediately. Firefighters what people kept out for access to emergency vehicles and to make sure people are not endangering themselves or potentially leading these in looting these neighborhoods. We will stay here and bring you the latest as it unfolds. As she said, fire has ripped through several residential neighborhoods in santa rosa, including the northwestern part of the city. This area was once lined with beautiful homes. A man who grew up there described it as a picturesque and ideal neighborhood. He cannot believe what it looks like now. I would never thought i would see santa rosa look like this. When i woke up this morning, i was in shock. It was surreal. There are some neighborhoods where there is not a single home that survived. Many highend homes near the Napa Silverado country club now look like this. This comes hours after the completion of the pga tour event at the club. Powerful winds are partly to blame for the wildfires rapid spread. This was the scene yesterday morning as flames burst from hillsides right down to the highways with embers ripping around. A lot of people in napa county are out of their homes as fire continues. 20,000 people are still under mandatory evacuation orders. We are live from one of many Evacuation Centers in napa.

There are about 350 people here at the church. There are two other Evacuation Centers, Napa Valley Community college and the fairgrounds. They are open to individuals who need food, rest and water. With so many people evacuated, they dont know what the status of their home is. At this point, they just have what they could run out of their home with. Some people are showing up and realizing they have nothing. And not knowing when they can have back to their neighborhoods. At this point, with zero containment, it could be days. Unfortunately, summer watching their homes burn on television. That is hard for people to see. We are thinking of everyone out there. There is a bit of good news weatherwise. Cooler air is out there.

The fire has crossed the highway several times in the last couple of hours. It has left drivers stranded on either side of the fire. Sometimes actually stuck between severed pieces of fire moving along the highway. Sometimes the best thing to do is just let things burn through. It is hard to see. Super windy. That is not helping at all. Reporter one driver collided with a patrol cruiser. Ultimately, this was an escape. An emergency worker trying to get people out of the way of a fire that was never going to slow down. I heard some guys over there that have families. Reporter daybreak did not bring much relief.
