How bad is it?

Not from the area so only would know what's out there on the news.  However, it sounds like it's gotten into some of the areas we visited while enjoying the wine country on vacation.  It's usually very nice up there this time of year and I think they may still be in the harvest time frame for some of the vineyards.

Fast moving, >10,000 acres now.  I've been to a lot of fires up there in the past and a lot of the terrain is brutal to work in.  Dozer lines, air ops, firing ops, hand crews and weather.  Geyserville is under evacuation orders.  Cal Fire only shows 2 involved structures but I saw pictures of a gutted winery.

It's pretty bad. Wind gust in Healdsburg was recorded at 93mph last night, and are expected to pick up again this afternoon. Sonoma County is now issuing mandatory evacs for 190,000 people, 60,000 of which are in city limits.

It really isn't a question of will the fire be bad, but more of will cities burn.

If the power was off, who started it?
