Kate,
The wind was taking it over Carmel and the peninsula- now a drastic direction change has it going past mid valley to the village.
And I hear it has shifted again to send the smoke south. At least it is in mop up now, per one report.

No wind to speak of but there must of been a slight shift as all of a sudden I could smell smoke. After a quick walk about, went to my go-to sites... here and Cal-Fire and CHP. Nothing... thankfully. Must be the Fort Ord burn. All good. Must admit I've been a bit gun-shy since last summer.
Just wanted to say so very glad to hear so little fire news from you BSK ! :)
Lord knows I am happy to not be reporting much fire news - now to get through Oct and we can all start breathing again.

Kate,
NAPA County is your latest wildfire/property lost/ people & businesses displaced! 1500 buildings destroys! #NunsFire over 5000+ acres burned.
And one death, so far, in one of the fires, but just don’t know which one.

Kate,
You are right. #TubbsFire and plenty more. Whoa...
