Kincade fire doubles in size over the weekend, only 5% contained.
Due to the extremely dangerous fire conditions in northern California on Sunday, including a 93 mph gust in the hills near Healdsburg in Sonoma County, the Kincade fire rapidly increased to 54,298 acres, doubling in size from Saturday. The containment is now down to 5%.
Unfortunately, the extremely critical fire danger is shifting to southern California today as dry Santa Ana winds will strengthen this morning and last through the day today. Nearly 2 million people in the Los Angeles metropolitan area are in the Extremely Critical Risk area. Elsewhere, by Wednesday and Thursday, a cold blast will begin surging down into the Rockies and into parts of the desert southwest. This should cause a fairly strong thermal gradient with the mild air along the Southern California coast line. As a result, dry Santa winds will begin to kick up.
