The thing to look at his what is going on on mount st. Helena today. The hour before it reported at 42 Miles Per Hour, virtually half the wind speed tonight compared to last night. It seems like good news to me. It is still windy, the red flag warning is still there but the wind is not as bad. We look at the wind model that tells you everything, after midnight things cool off and you see at 2 am they start to fire up, it is not as aggressive on the central and south bay as it was last night. Mostly in the Northeast Quadrant and by 9 am it is gone.

Hopefully it will stay that way. When i come back we will look at the forecast that includes less wind and cool overnight lows. T ....

Reporter Paul Lowenthal is the assistant fire marshal at the fire house. They have been positioned so if a fire does break out, they can quickly respond in order to keep the fires from spreading. But he says the big concern is the wind going to the property below and also reaching in the areas. We have three years of regrowth, so there is a lot of seasonal grasses and brush that is regrown, and that area does remain a concern for us. Reporter according to lowenthal, because pg e have reduced the amount of customers who will have their power cut, it means more energized lines which can pose a risk. Part of our planning is knowing that our city will remain energized, so that has us on high alert. There is the potential that we could have fires as a result of high power lines. They spent the week clearing their house, garage and attic. They say its going to be a tough season. Were exhausted. Today i spent more time cutting down more ....
