    • Not contained. Forward motion stopped. Evacuations remain in effect overnight. And only 10% contained.

  • 100% contained now, 15 acres burned, 2 houses destroyed and some others badly damaged. I think it is odd that we have had 3 fires in the last couple of weeks near the 101 on the central coast: Buellton, Avila Beach, Paso Robles.
