Angwin is higher and a little further up the road from deer park, which was destroyed fire coming up slope towards angwin from below. We mote john be a both, an evacuationee in st.

Do many cars left behind are humidded in shopping areas and School Parking lots to hopefully avoid insin race.

Reporter on the valley floor, st. Helena, population 6100 remains under an evacuation warning. Almost no businesses are open. You would love to have some business, but if its not safe for your employees, and some of our employees are evacuated. Reporter its just one more burden machine a half decade full of burdens. Well get through this. We just want our friends to be safe. But, you know with just been disheartening.

You pick up the winds and some of that ash is on fire, and thats a really problem. Its called spot fires, and they can do a lot of destruction, tom vacar, ktvu, fox 2 news. And now everybody bracing for more hot gusty weather and the return of those winds to come back tonight. You mentioned the spot fires, the winds, tom, e of this fire. As you know from covering fires, so its erratic, and those em are pushed, meaning those fires and spot fires have embers that can be pushed anywhere. And thats the scary thing. Reporter yeah, and as they become bigger, these fires can make their own weather, and that makes them evenmore erratic. Theres no way to perfectly predict what theyre going to do, but at least one thing, we have a whole lot of folks out there fighting these things, and theyre willing to continue fighting, even though theyre exhausted. All right, tom vacar, reporting live for us. Thank you. Those gusty winds died down earlier this week, and that helped firefighters make progress on the glass fire, but today forecasts are saying another red flag warning will take us back in the north bay starting tomorrow. Mark joins us now for more on all of that p. K. Mark . Hi there, julie. Yeah, the upcoming red flag warning is highlighting the heat and dry conditions heading our way. Temperatures have been coming down little bit over the last now days in most bay area neighborhoods, but tomorrow a quick rebound in temperatures. The winds will pulse up. Not as strong as the event we had over the weekend, but still any wind, even fit 20, 25 miles an hour, is still a huge challenge for the fire crews. Were looking at the fire conditions, at least the sensors right now. It is a warm and hot day, especially as you work your way closer to napa county. Temperatures in the 90s. Winds around 6 to 15 miles an hour, and those readings, relative humidity, coming down to 15 to 18 . With this pattern developing, youve been hearing bout the red flag fire warning in place for the north bay hills and the glass fire area. This begins 1 00 p. M. Thursday to 6 00 p. M. Friday. The winds not as strong as the last event, but still wind be moderately strong, gusts approaching 25 to maybe 30 miles honey hour. Its very hot and dry. Could be in the single digits. Here is the general forecast for tomorrow, as you can see, with the relative humidity coming down around 8 to 1 . Showing you this, that were showing you the wind forecast model, and youll notice the winds do pulse up into thursday evening. Instead of a northeast wind, were actually seeing more of a northwest wind. So its kind of an interesting pattern setting up, but still the same result. We still have dry winds in that area. Now checking out the temperature forecast, the relative humidity, off a barge start tomorrow morning, 60s and 70s into the afternoon hours. Youll notice temperatures really going up. In fact, that santa rosa reading should be closer to 100, even warmer than that, but lots of triple digits around the fire zone. Relative humidity coming down quite a bit.

We want to get an update now on the glass fire. This is a zoom News Conference from cal fire and Sonoma County officials. Well listen in live.

So as we stand coming into the evening tonight, 48,440 acres, 2 contained. Today we have 2,099 firefighters on the line, and we are working to strengthen the lines that we got put in yesterday. So there was successful firing operations completed in anadel park yesterday, and in the sugar loaf state park, down to highway 12 along adobe canyon road, as well as on the northern portion of the Sonoma County side of the line from the end of gates road out to the end of sharp road to secure those two flanks of the fire here in the county. That popup is continuing. Was out on the fire line today. There are a lot of pockets of heavier fuels, like we saw on the wall bridge, especially in the st. Helena rode area, so those crews are diligently works out there to mop up that line. With that, ill call it end of report. Okay, that press conference updating us. I can just recap the specific numbers. 48,000 acres have now burned. The fire is only 2 contained. There are now 2,000 firefighters on the fire lines. Thats up from about a thousand firefighters earlier this week. Also, they have increased the number of helicopters, firefighting helicopters dropping retardant on the flames. They now have 16 helicopters, up from 7 yesterday. S the big news here is red flag conditions again tomorrow. As we heard mark saying just a couple of minutes ago, were looking at winds up to 20 miles an hour. That has been one of the big issues here is battling the fire with the winds. Theyve gone up, died down, came back up. Makes it very difficult to fight the flames. Also looking at temperatures over 100 degrees once again tomorrow.

Cops to last nights debate, most people have already decided who they are going to vote for, but when it comes to the undecided voters, from what youre hearing today did last nights performance sway any voterrors change any minds . Well, think you point out that poll, julie, 86 of people going into last night already knew who they are going to vote for, put those undecided voters are an important segment, and if we base this solely on donations, joshs Campaign Said they had one of the best hours last night during the debate for donations, but i would like to give submit time to see how the polls move in the coming weeks.

They found themselves entrapped and overrun by the flames. Joining us now to talk more about that and the firefight against the fire is jonathan cox. Jonathan, what happened to those two firefighters . Yeah, frank, so on sunday night when the fire was really blowing from napa valley into santa rosa on those offshore conditions, two firefighters found themselves in a situation where fire inteittheir fire shelter, which is our tool of last resort for survival. They utilized the training and tools they had. Some vehicles were damaged, but that is an indication of how wednesday and the fire behindier were seeing at the moment. So would they deploying some like this, basic lay fireproof shield they pull over themselves, it means they were about to be overrun by the flames, correct . Reporter yeah, thats correct. Its our tool of last resort. It means when you feel you are being overrun by flames or heat, and conditions are such that you need a reliable piece of breathable air, thats when the firefighters get in those shelters. Its something that is very rare. Its also something that no firefighter ever wants to do. So were happy to report that they are uninjured, but, again, a stark reminder for just how dangerous the conditions are at the moment. Well, lets talk about this situation right now. Are you making progress . We are making progress. You know, every percent contain system just hour hours of work by firefighters out on the line. Today gave us a little bit of a window of opportunity. We didnt see extreme weather conditions. We are having some growth on the eastern side of this fire. But we really just had today to prepare for what is another offshore wind event with some red flag warnings coming into tomorrow, and thats where our concern lies, now what are our tactics over the next 24 to 36 hours to ensure that we protect the communities we have evacuated. So jonathan, i though that you now have 16 helicopters fighting the fire, up from 7 yesterday. You also have 2,000 firefighters on the line, up from a thousand earlier this week. We did hear from someone, a homeowner up in that area, earlier in our newscast, and he was wondering why you dont have any planes flying over the fire, dropping retardant on the flames. Yeah, thats a great question. So all of our air resources are regional assets, which means whatever fire has the highest priority at that moment will get the aircraft that they need. The issue that were really having on this fire is a visibility issue for where the fire head is. So to get aircraft underneath that smoke layer, there has to be clear visibility, especially when youre talking about 747s and dc10s, in some cases a couple of hundred feet off the tree tops, there has to be visibility to see when we fly them through. At the moment, there is just an unfortunate amount of smoke that we cant get the fixed aircraft in. What do you say fuel of the folks who are up there evacuated, wondering if theyre going to come home to their house . Yeah, so, you know, it never gets easier when we talk about fires and damage and destruction. You know, as firefighters, we want to save every single home and every single life. Thats what our job and our submission. So its heartbreaking. Its our families in the fire service who also have lost homes. You know, what we can tell everybody is that there are 2,000 firefighters and First Responder more on the way for you to make sure that we get you home as quickly as possible, and should be there damage or destruction on your property, to ensure that we start the Recovery Process as quickly as we can. As always, jonathan, well leave it there, but thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us tonight. We know that youre very busy. Appreciate it. Thank you.
