Yeah, it looks like a war zone. Cobb, Middletown and Hidden Valley Lakes appear hit worst. The Calistoga fairground is now a refugee center. Eight of the over 1200 firefighters have lost their own homes. The donations have turned one of the fairground convention halls into a Walmart. The American Red Cross has open shelters. So far about 585 homes are totaled; 25,000 Lake County residents evacuated and 62,000 acres are burned. Fortunately only one reported death ...so far and rain is expected; the weather is helping with less wind and cooler temps. Rain is forecast for tomorrow but may sprinkle today. I'm not looking forward to going there (work) but inevitably will have to. Cobb, possibly the starting point of the fire, is worst hit: every home destroved; I almost moved there myself as it is remote and beautiful; and there were cougars on one occasion within 10 feet of my car. Currently the fire is 10% contained.
