Equipment and providing security. Its the common set up for a wildfire investigates vest team. The vineyard is almost impossible to reach by vehicle. Its down a steep hell from the top of the north fork of Crystal Springs road, just east of the silverado trail north of st. Helena. Almost nothing survived on the firescared mountain. The vineyard is surrounded by an electrician fence, and there are no power lines near where investigators were set up. Im in shock. Im devastated at the loss of my neighborhood. Reporter pam was startled awake around 4 00 a. M. Sunday when the fire first broke out. She took this video of the flames marching down ll side wh are now looking. Reporter i could see northeast here, big blaze up on top of the mountain. Reporter soon the fire would engulf everything around her, including several of her neighbors homes. When i felt my hair was going to startsen knowledging if i didnt just evacuate, you know. Reporter the first calls about the fire came in around 3 50 sunday morning. Just down the hill from where cal fire is now investigating. Very active fire. Spotting out quite a ways ahead of itself. Reporter robert fox worthy described the chaotic early moments of the fire. He could not confirm any details about a possible cause and origin of the blaze. I know our investigators out there currently trying to track down and eliminate all of the things that didnt start it and figure out what it was that did. Reporter investigations into the cause of a wildfire can sometimes take months or even a year. Investigators need to rule out all other possibilities. And sometimes they never come up with how a viral started. Determining the cause of a wildfire can have monumental ramifications. Pg e has accepted responsibility for some of californias most devastating fires caused by its equipment. The company declared bankruptcy ask settled with the wildfire victims this year for 13. 5 billion. The utility was quick to distance itself from the glass fire, saying in a statement we have no information indicating the glass fire ignition is attributable to our facilities. Neighbors told us the vineyard is owned by cake bred sellers. We reached out to the country who had just returned our message, saying they are cooperating and providings information to cal fire. Crews battling the glass fire are in a race against the weather. Strong gusty winds are expected to return tomorrow, and that could complicate efforts to contain the flames. Here is a look at where the fire is burning. Right now its threatening more than 22,000 homes, and other structures, in napa and sonoma counties. So far the fire has burned 48,440 acres, and is only 2 contained. Flames have already destroyed 113 homes, businesses, and other structures. And tonight theres concern about the small town of angwin in napa county. Tom vacar is here tonight with the efforts that are underway there. Tom . Reporter we spent a lot of time in the Northern Valley here, but i want though you something. You look over here. That is huge plume of smoke going up in the air. We were up there earlier as youll see in our taped report. But then we go to the left and when we get past the sun that you can barely see, orange, theres another fire. Now, these fires are not insignificant or small fires. The fact is, these things, if they get a lot of wind on them, could be a real, real problem. But this is a fight to the finish, with no idea where the finish line actually is. The fight against the glass fires eastern flank took place uncomfortably close to angwin, population 3400, already under mandatory evacuation. This is largely an intense and relentless aerial battle, putting aircraft, including Air National Guard helicopters, against a fire that could still make its way to angwin should conditions make it possible. Thats because this part of the glass fire is just too big and too close to ignore. Anquan is higher and a little further up the road from deer park, which was destroyed by fire coming upslope towards angwin from below. We met john be a both in st. Helena who lives in angwin, but has already been staying in the valley for the last three days. Monday afternoon, about noon, it went to a mandatory evacuation.

And theyre willing to put up with inconvenience and things, but you have to give them some kind of situation they can handle. Reporter st. Helena remains under an investigation warning. Population 6100. Almost no businesses are opened. You would love to have some business, but if its not safe for your companies, and some of our employees are evacuated. Reporter its just one more burden machine a half decade full of burdens. Well get through this, and we just want our friends to be safe, but its just been disheartening. Reporter calistoga which was already a ghost town under partial evacuation saw its mandatory leave orders widened today. Fit werent for mutual aid across the state, between states, and even with other countries, the fight against these wildfires would be hopeless, ands a it is, it is becoming challenging as they get worse and worse. So why havent we deploying more planes to get on these things early so they wont become these catastrophes. It seems like were light on our planes, andive heard reports that we are. Reporter with so many massive fires in so many places, Climate Change certainly seems to have overwhelmed all existing resources, signaling the dire need for more resources and very, very soon. Again, two fires, theyre there, and the tough weather, the windy weather, is on its way. Tom vacar, ktvu fox 2 news. Tom, going back to what that gentleman was saying about wondering why there were no firefighting planes up there, they have 747s, dc10s that can drop tons of fire retardant at one time. Is itthat they cant fly right now . Reporter thats a very bug part of it, absolutely. Now, the helicopters you saw were flying today, because they were there in a fairly clear area, but you have to be able to see the target so you can drop on it, and you dont want to get too low, because there are last things that can go wrong with an airplane flying close to the ground. Although theygetting very low to make their drops of. In this were the only fire, we would have enough. But this is one of dozens of fires all around the state of california and in the western states. So the problem is those resources have to be used where theyre most needed and right at the moment, you know, theres just overwhelming number of fires. We need to really be thinking about different ways outside of the box to get more aircraft into the air and much bigger ones with much bigger loads. Tom, thank you.

A bats more like it performance out of them in game two of their playoff series with the Chicago White sox. Everybody knows you look at them on paper, they have all of the world series ingredients, just a little trouble meshing it together of late. Pitching, hitting, defense in evidence this afternoon in game two for bob melvin and company, and they had it working, because it was lose and go home. Again, this is the sensaryio. First inning, two out, matt olson trying to find a hole. Madrigal with the airer there, costly for the white sox. Two runs are going to come in, 20 lead. Nothing cheap about this thing off the bat of murkowski simeon off dallas kicks. Tworun shot. 40 lead and the as trying to build on it in the third. Looks like at east a double, and scaling the wall. Thats great catch. And then the crush makes an appearance. Chris davis goes deep on to the free pizza sign. Just his third home run of the year if you count the regular season 3750 lead, but tense moments in the top of the 9th. White sox have the bases loaded. Two outs. The dangerous jose abreu up there. He would ground out against jacob dhec and the as pull it out, holding on for dear life. Chris basset talked about the game two win that even this series. Gamechanger, game saver, thats automatic two runs if he doesnt catch it. He came up with a ridiculous catch and truly saved my outing. I feel like the monkey is off our back a little bit, and now its just play baseball from here on out. It must be really weird being a Minnesota Twins fan. You watch them all during the season, and kind of hope that they dont make the playoffs, because they have now lost 18 consecutive games in the post season. Hat is a record for any major sport in north america, and it happens to them again against the houston astros. Its a nogo, theyre done. That is a sour twins fan reminding the astros that they are, after all, cheaters. Its been proven. 7th inning, 11, core lows deep for the solo homer. 31 your final. The twin once again are out, and, remember, the astros will play either the as or the white sox, whoever wins tomorrow at noon. 16 teams played today in the mlb playoffs. Reds and braves today go into the 13 inning scoreless, Freddie Freeman comes through with a walkoff single. The reds and braves struck out 35 times between them. Thats a Major League Playoff record. Boy, that must have been real fun to watch. You figure the worm must turn eventually for the 49ers. Got to start getting healthy, right . Well, maybe a step in the right direction today, as they get depot samuels back on the field. Got to be their number one receiver that broke a foot during the offseason. Maybe hell apply against philadelphia, but thats a question that coach shanahan cant completely answer right now. There hes healthy, so we just want to see him out there and get back in the swing of playing football. Its been a while since he has. He has been working hard with our trainers and everyone else with the rehab, but we just need to see him go through three days and what kind of shape heat in, and if he can protect helps, hell be out there. All right. They need that guy back, and theyll be on National Television sunday night against detroit. Back to you guys. If cant believe that begins reported. All right, mark, see you. See you later, julie. Goodnight, frank, and everybody. Thanks for joining us. So do it hold on. Where is he . Well, according to his text, he was on the second floor, then he stopped to tie his shoe. phone chimes all tied, and. Hello hi. Sorry were late. Amy took forever tying my shoe. Koothrappali all right whos excited to see a documentary . Oh, i know this one. Nobody ever. Hey this ones going to be great. This is about the rivalry between a cool renegade scientist, nikola tesla, and his archnemesis, thomas edison. Its the greatest scientific feud of all time. I mean, you can forget about leibniz and newton. Done. So, teslas the one that invented the electric car . laughter sheldon no, penny. No, the car is just named after him. Okay, you dont have to be so smug about it. You know, you went to see that movie it because you thought it was about scary i. T. Guys. Tesla was a genius who invented our electrical grid. Edison just wanted to get rich and famous. Didnt he invent the lightbulb . Thats what he wants you to think. But without the foundational work of ebenezer kinnersley, warren de la rue and james bowman lindsay, you wouldnt know edison any more than you know ebenezer kinnersley, warren de la rue or james bowman lindsay. Isnt he sexy all fired up . He really gets my current alternating, if you know what i mean. Edison was kind of a publicity hog and a bully. Yeah, he electrocuted an elephant named topsy just to make himself famous. If i had an elephant named topsy, he would want for nothing. Also, hed be named jumbo. And worse than that, edison filmed the first onscreen kiss, so. Hes basically a pornographer. Although, every time i put that in wikipedia, someone takes it out. Is your current still alternating
