No matter when youre able to check in kron on will be there for you. Now to our wildfire coverage, lets take a look at the glass fire which has now burned new numbers, 66,000 acres in napa and sonoma counties but look at containment is up now to 41 . They say the fire has destroyed 557 homes in napa sonoma counties. But there are still 22,000 homes that remained threatened and that is why they are taking this seriously keeping a lot of people still out of their neighborhoods. We do have a closer look at the damage this morning. Yeah weve got kron fours will tran standing by up in napa out actually near saint helene and just off silverado. Road this morning will whats the latest from what you can tell. The latest says 15 wineries have either been destroyed or damaged so its already being declared along with the homes and the winerys already being declared the worst fire to hit napa valley. The sevens my camerawoman and i did some investigating at first we thought this was a home there are lavish homes in this area, but we walked around step out it turns out this is one of the winerys destroying this could be a tasting room. There is a vineyard right next door, this is a big area you can see the steps leading into what was once im sure a fabulous facility. But instead it is gone is not even smoldering anymore. You can see the fire hoses on the ground as the firefighters obviously were once here. They are gone, but there are crisscrossing this area still looking out for hot spots. I want to draw your attention to the screen. This is new video into the kron 4 news room in the overnight hours so if youre just getting up youre seeing it for the very first time along with other viewers you can see the fire just ripping through this area. It will be weeks before they even declare this fire contained and contain doesnt mean that its over just means its not spreading which it continues to spread fortunately, it is not in the areas where people live and work. Its in the more remote areas along the ridges hard to reach places where they have to bring water up to the firefighters. Because there are no fire hydrants in those areas drop off the water run back downhill get more water, you get the process repeat do it over and over. They are taking to the sky that is good news because sometimes the visibility improves that allows them to take to the air. One of the tools that theyre using is to drop fire retardant down to the ground as far as the homes, those numbers that james and darya just mentioned those numbers should continue to go up the reason being now that some of the areas like this one are a little bit safer for the firefighters to go through they will manually count. And when they count those numbers are sure to go up, but the bottom line is in napa county were sitting at around 250 homes that have been destroyed approximately 270 homes and sonoma county. Many homes are threatened. This particular area civil rado road is under lockdown we had to show our press pass just to get to this location so still many areas under mandatory evacuation in other areas under evacuation warnings. It is just. Horrible to see just the destruction james and darya and the Vineyards Wineries that are still up they say their graves it just ruins of the point where they have to find some way to make some money possibly instead of making wine maybe even turning it into brandi anything this try to salvage from this fire. Back to art thank you very much well one family in napa lost their catering business because the pandemic and now theyve lost their home because of the glass fire. Fire destroyed of alaska as his family home in deer park along with many other homes on that block and tony alaskas plan to stay behind with his son to defend their home and his wife and children they evacuated the other kids but then as the flames drew closer they had to make that quick decision to leave so they could live 19 years a special memories went up in flames. Honestly we didnt were going to by fire. Because you know we have so many so many times being acquitted. It gets to a point you know it becomes routine. This time was in. It was him a normal normal immigration. Was it was the were going to see our house. At least they do have insurance and have Home Insurance but this is the tricky thing about insurance. They dont have the kind of plan that covers intermedia housing. So for now they are staying with family.
