Smoky skies mean that there isn't a lot of air movement - lo wind. Bad for air quality, good for firefighting.
Firefighters working double shifts due to lack of resources w/25 fires burning.

Fire made it to Oakmont early Am and Annadel.
Crews saving as many homes as the could - โSaved far more than they lost.โ
So many fires could mean delays. Get process started now!

Supervisor Gorin (who lost her home in 2017 fire and new one still isn't finished being built) - "This is all too familiar for us" in Sonoma County.

Supervisor Gorin is currently evacuated, too. If you need anything and you're in her district you can email her at susan.gorin@sonoma-country.org.

Mayor Tom in Santa Rosa - PLEASE CONSERVE WATER. Do not leave sprinklers on. Do not use unnecessary water. City of Santa Rosa must limit water use for sake of water pressure due to firefighting efforts.
@MaryCallahanB asked if we should expect more evacuations? Sheriff's Dept doesn't know. Doesn't think but doesn't want to be held to that.

My step-grandpa, Carl Richard Bischoff, died in Arizona yesterday after a five year fight with multiple myeloma. One of the most altruistic men I've ever known, he stepped in as a surrogate grandfather to me when my stepmom, BJ, became part of our family.

Almost 15 years ago we both under went surgeries- me dental surgery and Carl for colon cancer- like two freshman college roommates we were holed up together unexpectedly at BJ's house - eating soft foods, hopped up on pain killers and watching bad television for a week.

It was my first chance to get to know Carl, this man who was a new part of my family tree. He was born in 1933, the day after me, August 27, in Lancaster, PA. (We often celebrated our birthdays together!)

This means the fire is no longer spreading, but it is not necessarily at 100% containment.
๐ฅ1/4 acre
Crews will be on scene for 3 hours
I will update THIS THREAD for the time being with any new information. ๐
This is on the Napa-Sonoma border, honestly. Just east of Sugarloaf State Park.
#WallFire is located in the Nuns Fire scar. That's "my" fire. And don't get excited - 2017 fire scars are ready to burn again - if you live here, you know.
