Distance of the fire. And thats why the firefighters actually had to evacuate many of the homes last night just in case that fire jumped the fire line the embers carried over and then could possibly set this neighborhood on fire. Fortunately that was not the case the people were allowed to return to their homes in the overnight hours as far as the cause of the fire didnt take them very long to figure that out at least one person was arrested possibly many more by the end of today as far as the fire got out of hand really quickly. Its an area thats hard to ach you cant drive your fire trucks up there so they have hoses going along the ridge line and when that was not enough to actually took to the air and drop fire retardant down to the flames and the people in the neighborhood they are thankful that the firefighters quickly pounced on the flames because this area because its so dry and the home so close that this neighborhood give the easily been something that we saw in santa rosa where those homes went up in flames. Those 2 were prepared to evacuate like martha prado youre saying to me that some people didnt get ready to go, but you made sure that you packed your valuables.
