Good Morning.

Look what can happen when the wind blows. The north wind is Northern California's version of a Santa Ana wind. It is a steady wind, out of the North...with gusts around 35 mph.

Yesterday, several fires ran away from fire fighters due to this wind. A large number of homes were lost. The saddest part of the day was hearing the news that a fellow fire fighter was burned. In South Sacramento, the wind shifted and chased 3 fire fighters back to their engine. Two fire fighters made it to the cab, the third did not. He received 2nd and 3rd degree burns to his arms, hands, and face. He is being treated at UC Davis Burn Center. He is expected to make a full recovery. Our prayers go out to him and his family.

We should all keep this scenario implanted into our brains. We are seeing fire behavior like it is already September. Put a little wind on something and it's going to burn. The recent rains and humidity are gone.

Let's all stay safe out there. Frontline is the one's you want to see just sitting around, waiting. When we are bored, you are safe. We don't mind being bored.

Stay safe.
