Thanks. At the moment things are okay where we are, other than the high PM2.5 counts that mean we can't open the windows to try to cool off or dry out the air inside the house.
This area at the south end of the valley is also concerning:
(in this map yellow is "order" and pink is the "warning" area)
As you can see, the gap across Highway 101 is rather narrow. If it were to jump over and start burning in the hills on the west... that's the same mountain ridge as the fire already burning southwest of us (CZU), although about 20 miles distant from the CZU fire. The LNU fire in the north bay jumped across I-80, and they're fairly similar to one another in width and surrounding terrain, so it's not impossible. (101 near the evac area; I-80 around the area where it crossed)
