    That sucks but a house can be rebuilt as long as the family is safe that’s what matters.

    Sorry to hear that @Whitebutler

    You’re alive. Hopefully they can save your house.

    @Cuffs Any advice on how to track this kind of stuff? And what to do if he did lose his home?

    Anyone in Chico, this fires taking off. Don't know much but here's what I've got. Hopefully my designated camp area doesn't get burned away

    https://forums.wildfireintel.org/t/ca-btu-camp/6384/44

    If you guys have questions on terms ask I'll try to reply soon. This is important if you're in the area. S2 is a type 2 tanker with approx 1200 gallons, tra is temporary refuge area, fire burning SE from chico from what I can tell. Smoke is already in Rancho Cordova and has been for hours. This one's gonna take some time.

    Damn... this sucks to hear. Reading about this fire and how fast it's spreading. Pretty much have a helpless feeling of what can I do to help?

    I know things are chaotic at this point, but when you get your bearings, if there's anything we can do... let us know.

    Dammit I hate hearing this shit.

    Cell phone alerts: RapidNotify or Nixle

    I’ll get web links in a second

    EDIT. Find your county sheriff on social media (fb, Twitter). They tend to post updates there first even before public addresses.

    CalOES will also post info.

    Best source: soon as it has a name or number, Inciweb. Look it up by name or filter to state etc.

    Out here in Rohnert Park they canceled all classes at Sonoma state after 4pm today and we got updated they may shut off power at some point to try and prevent power lines from starting another fire down here! Praying for everyone involved!

    Really hated to hear I had to go home then got almost there and had to turn back. I just couldn't get there fast enough to be safe and now all the things we've worked so hard for have gone.
    My wife and children are safe. That's the reality of the situation. This is now hitting home or at least our hearts and minds. We have loved ones safe and out of danger. I'm not a godly Man, however today I did pray for their safety and they're safe. I am now thankful. Material items will be replaced. We all need some things in life to get the point of what matters most.

    Geez I sound like I'm rambling.
    Anyway we are trucking on and going to work tomorrow. We have to start over somewhere. We are starting tomorrow!

    Same at Chico. My neighbor's kid is an RA and they've started evac at the outer edges of the school.

    Man, this is crazy.
