  • Scott Mclean: from the CAL FIRE Information Center, I'm Scott Mclean with the CAL FIRE Report for Monday, August 26, 2019. La
    Scott McLean: From the CAL FIRE Information Center, I’m Scott McLean with the CAL FIRE Report for Monday, August 26, 2019. Last week, amid yet another week of triple digit temperatures, California firefighters saw a steady flow of new wildfires. In total, 202 new fires started statewide, across all jurisdictions. Of those 202, 164 were within CAL FIRE’s jurisdiction. Switching over to our Statewide Fire Map, you can see that there are currently 4 active wildfires with most of those in Northern California. Let’s take a closer look at a few of those active fires, starting with the Mountain Fire in Shasta County. The Mountain Fire started on Thursday, August 22 north of Bella Vista. Within just a few hours, it grew to 600 acres and led to the evacuation of several surrounding communities. However, thanks to the aggressive initial attack by firefighters, the Mountain Fire was kept from growing further, and residents were able to return home relatively quickly. The Mountain Fire currently remains at 600 acres, and is 95% contained. Next up, another fire started yesterday along the California-Mexico border. This one is known as the Border 10 Fire and is burning along the area east of the Otay port of entry, about half a mile south of the border. The Border 10 fire did cross over into the US, but firefighters were able to quickly stop its spread at 20 acres. The Border 10 fire is currently 75% contained. And lastly, we have the Long Valley Fire which started over the weekend off Highway 395 north of the Hallelujah Junction.

Abstract Between 2017 and 2019, California experienced a series of devastating wildfires that together led over one million people to be ordered to evacuate. Due to the speed of many of these wildfires, residents across California found themselves in challenging evacuation situations, often at night and with little time to escape. These evacuations placed considerable stress on public resources and infrastructure for both transportation and sheltering.
