FIRE REPORT

by Bob Walsh

The Caldor Fire has covered over  60,000 acres and has zero containment.  The CHP has closed Hwy 50 because of it.  It has burned about 140 structures, mostly rural homes. It hasn't jumped 50 yet and probably won't with the wind blowing towards the East.  That, however, is supposed to change  in a couple of days.  

The Dixie Fire has burned over 700,000 acres and is only about 1/3 contained.  The wind is blowing East now so it is headed for Tahoe rather than towards me.  Good for me.  Bad for them.
