There is some speculation that a firebug set the fires for some reason. But nevertheless, the county is safe. The numbers are over 20 houses, 25000+ displaced, thousands of acres burned. The main problem were the 25-70 mph winds coming from the mountains. Also, most school districts ( including mine) have cancelled tomorrow's classes.
