Yesterday long cruise road and oak spring circle, north of gilroy its grown so far to 1500 acres its only 15 contained. The park fire on the right there making much more progress with that one is burning near morgan hill. Sir had 340 acres so far but 70 contained at this hour all the evacuations lifted at morgan hill but evacuations remain in place and gilroy so lets go there now kron fours will tran standing by with the latest well it looks smoky behind you. Yes, its gotten smoke here since the last time you see me even though theyve knocked down the flames, this is kenyada road and this is one of the locations where they had to evacuate people yesterday because the fire was racing through this area. Breathing is quite difficult at this time fortunately it is not windy. Let me quickly step out and show you the terrain you can see that firefighter. Often the distance right there just keeping a close eye on the situation. Look at how more importantly daria yellow the grass is it is dry ready to go up in flames which is why we have seen firefighters all up and down kenyada road just to make sure that they are ready to pounce on any fire that happens to move along this ridge year. Let me show you video that we got when we first arrived here about an hour ago you can see in the video along the ridge area near some homes that the fire was still burning quite actively at this time they focused their attention on that area we didnt see any fire drops at that particular time but in my there might have some crews nearby where they are able to spray some water on to that location and knock down the flames so those flames are gone, but the damage already down when the fire started yesterday afternoon. They evacuated people and thats great nobody that we are hearing has died or has had any major injuries but 2 structures did go up in flames in fact, heres one person talking about that. I could see the big thick black smoke and the huge flames, the flames where the house was burning were over the trees you could see it above the trees and the line the fire line was real big. And back live now we want to show you the area it seems like its gotten smoke here by the minute you can see well pretty soon you might not even see some of that texture of this hillside years of some hills taller than others because its been just a blanket of smoke, thats just got on top of this again fortunately it is not windy that could be a disaster because he could carry the embers from one location to the other but they are obviously going to update us on the situation calfire usually has an update every time at every fire at around 7 in the morning. Right now as we are still talking at this very moment, 1500 acres, 15 containment and it looks like its going to be days before they get full containment james darya i was talking about how cal fire continues to go up and down this location.

Officials there looking to see if it was also sparked by fireworks. Theyre still determining that but neighbors say they did hear fireworks before the flames broke out. About 10 oclock last night we heard some fireworks going off and after them maybe half an hour after that we heard. Sirens going down it just kept going off no one you know for a lot and i guess people are trying to celebrate in. Unfortunately things bad things happen when youre doing a dry area like and there you can see up on the hill there. And you can still see some smoldering going on up on the hill.
