"This week marks the beginning of safe and sane fireworks being sold in approximately 300 communities in California," Berlant said. "It's critical that if you choose to buy safe and sane fireworks in one of these communities that you exercise extreme caution. Only use those fireworks with the State Fire Marshal Seal of Approval. California has a zero tolerance towards the use and sale of illegal fireworks." A full fireworks safety guide can be found here: ReadyForWildfire.org Ready Where You Are: Disaster Kit Storage You never know where you’ll be when an emergency occurs, so it’s a good idea to be ready wherever you are. That means preparing supplies for your home, work, and vehicle. 5 The Ready Campaign has information about creating a disaster supply kit for each location. www.ready.gov/kit-storage For your home: Create a kit containing enough food, water, and supplies to last at least three days; and Keep the kit in a designated place and make sure family members know where it is. For your work: Be prepared to shelter in place for at least 24 hours; Include food, water, and other necessities like medicines in your kit. Keep the kit in one container and be ready to grab and go; and Have comfortable walking shoes in case an evacuation requires walking long distances. For your vehicle: Include jumper cables, flashlights, clothing, and a first aid kit; and Consider having a fully charged cell phone and phone charger, flares, baby formula, and diapers if you have a small child. California Wildfire Latest: 9 Large Fires, 2 Deaths, Hundreds of Homes Destroyed Here are the latest stats on the major fires currently burning in the state. Shared from the Temecula, CA Patch By Renee Schiavone (Patch Staff) - June 27, 2016 2:52 pm ET 6 More than 5,200 firefighters are working Monday to battle nine large blazes across the Golden State as fire season rages on. And as we move into another warm week, Cal Fire is warning of increased fire risk. "Yesterday’s high temperatures combined with the low humidity led to an increase in wildfire conditions," Cal Fire Spokesman Daniel Berlant said Monday morning. "Several large wildfires broke out burning hundreds of acres." Berlant said that since temperatures are forecast to be anywhere from five to 15 degrees above normal and humidity is expected to drop, a dangerous combination will increase the fire risk statewide. "There is a chance for isolated lightning in the mountains of San Bernardino down to San Diego," he added. The Fires The largest fire of all right now is the deadly Erskine Fire in Kern County, near Lake Isabella. As of Monday morning, an estimated 45,388 acres had burned and 200 homes had been destroyed. Dozens more are in jeopardy. Two fatalities related to the fire are confirmed. Containment is estimated at 40 percent. 7 Over the weekend, a fire popped up about 2.5 miles northeast of Laguna Beach, in the Laguna Coast Wilderness Park. An estimated 50 acres has burned there so far, and it's considered 60 percent contained, according to Cal Fire.

With more than 34 percent of precincts reporting, Measure A has received overwhelming approval, amassing 10,364 votes, which translates to 77 percent of the vote, according to the San Bernardino County Elections Office. Measure A needed a two-thirds majority to pass. Doug Qualls — former Apple Valley Fire Protection District Chief and Measure A’s principal officer — told the Daily Press things are “going well” in the district as a result of the voting. “The threshold of reaching two-thirds of the voters is an extraordinary effort,” Qualls said. “To get two-thirds of the people to agree on something, and we far exceeded that expectation, that’s by commitment to the community.” Qualls called Tuesday’s outcome the result of a reality wherein fire stations need to be reopened; currently just three of the district’s seven fire stations are opened, and emergency-response times are below the national averages. “In 1997,” Qualls said, “the fire district promised the voters that they would deliver the best service they can deliver with the resources provided.

  • Estimating Post-Fire Debris-Flow Hazards Prior to Wildfire Using a Statistical Analysis of Historical Distributions of Fire Severity from Remote Sensing Data
    CSIRO PUBLISHING International Journal of Wildland Fire 2018, 27, 595–608 https://doi.org/10.1071/WF17122 Estimating post-fire debris-flow hazards prior to wildfire using a statistical analysis of historical distributions of fire severity from remote sensing data Dennis M. StaleyA,D, Anne C. TilleryB, Jason W. KeanA, Luke A. McGuireC, Hannah E. PaulingA, Francis K. RengersA and Joel B. SmithA AU.S. Geological Survey, Landslide Hazards Program, Golden, CO 80422, USA. BU.S. Geological Survey, New Mexico Water Science Center, Albuquerque, NM 87113, USA. CUniversity of Arizona, Department of Geosciences, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA. DCorresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract. Following wildfire, mountainous areas of the western United States are susceptible to debris flow during intense rainfall. Convective storms that can generate debris flows in recently burned areas may occur during or immediately after the wildfire, leaving insufficient time for development and implementation of risk mitigation strategies. We present a method for estimating post-fire debris-flow hazards before wildfire using historical data to define the range of potential fire severities for a given location based on the statistical distribution of severity metrics obtained from remote sensing. Estimates of debris-flow likelihood, magnitude and triggering rainfall threshold based on the statistically simulated fire severity data provide hazard predictions consistent with those calculated from fire severity data collected after wildfire. Simulated fire severity data also produce hazard estimates that replicate observed debris-flow occurrence, rainfall conditions and magnitude at a monitored site in the San Gabriel Mountains of southern California. Future applications of this method should rely on a range of potential fire severity scenarios for improved pre-fire estimates of debris-flow hazard.
