^YUP LATE SUPPER WITH LITTLE CAESAR'S PIZZA! still 92F. ! UPDATE: the five fires all burning currently in Napa are now dubbed the LNU Lighning Complex Fire and have thus far consumed 32,025 acres and three structures. The ash on my car and smoke however are from neighboring Sonoma county which also has lightning generated fires.

Governor Gavin Newsom today secured two Fire Management Assistance Grants  (FMAGs) from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to help ensure the availability of vital resources to suppress  the LNU Lightning Complex Fire burning in Napa County and the Jones Fire burning in Nevada County.The FMAGs, which are provided through the President’s Disaster Relief Fund on cost-share basis, will assist local, state and tribal agencies responding to the fires to apply for 75-percent reimbursement of their eligible fire suppression costs.
The LNU Lightning Complex is comprised of two separate fires (Hennessey Fire and Gamble Fire) under a single incident management team. Together, the fires have burned 7,700(now 32,000) acres, causing evacuations and threatening homes near Lake Hennessey and Zinfandel.
In Nevada County, the Jones Fire has burned 550 acres and is causing several evacuations and school closures in the areas west of Nevada City.
The recent sustained high winds have made an ideal environment for dangerous fire conditions throughout the region, and the National Weather Service (NWS) has issued Red Flag Warnings for the area.
