started yesterday west of geyserville and exploded toward healdsburg. but growth slowed down. today. the fire has burned 1200 acres and containment is up to 20. we have team coverage tracking the fires and the dangerous weather fueling the flames. >> let's get right to abc seven news reporter suzanne fawn in sonoma county. >> suzanne, it was a much better day for firefighters monday. cal fire says crews made great progress. firefighters got a better handle of the flames and they kept the fire from moving forward. >> the fire came from that direction. >> the point fire burning in sonoma county near lake sonoma, forced about 400 people from their home and businesses. the fire burning intensely on sunday afternoon. taylor brinkman of raymond burr vineyards knows well it kind of went from 0 to 100 pretty quick. >> it was everything was kind of fine because i was here. i was working in the tasting room. >> heavy winds and low moisture in the air were factors for fast moving flames. on sunday, the wind really started to whip up around, i want to say around 330
1:12 am
or 4:00. >> and that's when it started to get really smoky here. and that's when we knew, oh, the fire is actually right there. >> on monday, cal fire said conditions were much better. the wind was significantly less. after surveying some of the damage, crews determined that two homes so far have been destroyed in the fire. a number of other structures have been damaged, but it's too early to say exactly how many. according to cal fire crews got better containment around the fire and mopped up hot spots. cal fire says the five helicopters in the air on this monday were a big help with water drops, but the agency says the aerial attack at night, the helicopters using night vision goggles, has made a significant difference on this fire. >> last night we had two night helicopters flying the ch 47 over there and those were very advantageous of us to take control of those lower temperatures and higher humidities and give the ground troops a something to work off of throughout the night. stopping these fires at night is
1:13 am
going to help us in the future. >> back to raymond burr vineyards. brinkman is grateful crews were able to hold back the flames and protect businesses and homes in the area, thanks to the firefighters who were here on the property last night. >> i think they're the reason that everything here is still standing. >> no new evacuations have been ordered again. cal fire says monday was a big win for crews because they were able to keep the fire from growing in size in cloverdale. suzanne vaughn abc seven news. >> now those firefighters, of course, are hoping that weather conditions stay on their side. tonight. >> abc seven news meteorologist sandyha patel is tracking the weather on the front lines of those fires. yeah, ama and dan. >> the conditions are favorable for the crews right now, and i think they'll be able to make some progress overnight as well. temperature is 66 degrees. the relative humidity has been coming up at 37. and the winds are really light. there are no gusts right now south southeast to two miles an hour. there is a red flag warning nearby in solano county until 8 a.m.
1:14 am
tomorrow. northerly wind gusts 20 to 35 miles an hour. combined with low humidity 5 to 15, keeping critical fire weather conditions in place. as we look at the fire danger index, you will notice that tomorrow, once again, there will be areas inland that will be in the moderate to high category in terms of the fire danger, one of the reasons is the finer fuels, like the dryer, are very dried out, like brushes. the trees are still okay, but the grasses are what we're concerned about. and that's why with the wind we are expecting the fire danger to remain elevated as it is going to be another gusty one across the bay area. i'll be back with a full look at the forecast, which does include the smoke forecast coming right up ama. >> all right. thank you sandhya. and you can track the fires burning across the state with our abc seven news wildfire tracker. click on the fire icon to learn the latest on each fire, including acres burned and containment. you can find it on abc 7.com. slash fire map. >> new at 11 tonight. hard numbers show the statewide

sideshow on saturday. he faces charges of a felony hit and run and felony reckless driving. police say an officer tried to help the injured spectator, but people then swarmed his car. they hurt the officer and did severe damage to the vehicle. san jose police are working to identify those who participated in the assault and the vandalism of that officer's car. the department posted online today that they will do everything possible to arrest those involved. we want to help you get ahead of the big stories here on abc seven news at 11. so with that in mind, time for the advancer at 11, starting with a potentially significant wrinkle in the second trial of paul pelosi's attacker tomorrow, david depape, state trial judge, will discuss a possible issue with the jury because of something his ex-wife, just gypsy taub, may have done. abc seven news reporter stephanie sierra saw an incident today where someone found papers that they believe taub was leaving in the bathroom. there is concern
1:17 am
that jurors saw the material during one of those breaks. taub has attended both trials and has claimed the evidence against pap is false. >> our other advancer, a major vote tomorrow night that could change richmond's relationship with chevron. environmental groups say the refinery should be paying for pollution solutions, and the city council could let voters decide. abc seven news reporter tim johns explains the new kind of gas tax on the table, the ongoing struggle between the city of richmond and chevron could take another step forward. >> this week. the city's council is set to vote on an oil refining tax, a move that would put the measure on the ballot for local voters to consider in the fall. the push is being spearheaded by several local environmental groups, including the asian pacific environmental network. catherine lee works with a pen. she says the chevron facility has adversely impacted the health of richmond residents for years. >> they're frequently flaring, they have oil spills, and while they're harming and putting toxins into our air, our people
1:18 am
are having to pay for our own medical bills. >> while he says the tax would be a way to make chevron pay for the damage it's done to the community, others, like kevin schlegel of the western states petroleum association, say it could have unintended consequences. you know, we're down to nine refiners in the state. >> there's a time when we had 36, and so, you know, any sort of more pressure we put on these refiners, the more apt we are to put them in a position where, you know, california might not be a great place for them to do business. >> this isn't the first time that richmond has tried to pass a tax on oil refineries. back in 2008, voters approved a similar measure, but it was ultimately struck down in court a year later. this time around, though, the city says things will be different and has been, look very careful to make sure that if this initiative wins and it gets challenged in court, the city has, a defendable argument to win. supporters say the new tax could generate anywhere between 60 and $90 million a year. in addition to supporting
1:19 am
clean environmental initiatives and funding public services. they say it could also help the city fill its budget deficit. chevron is already the city's biggest employer and tax payer, and slagle says relying too much on a single entity could be a bad move if they ever decide to leave. >> it's bad precedent. it's bad fiscal policy. it's really not, responsible way to manage a city. >> but given that richmond residents suffer from things like asthma at far greater rates than other californians, lee says she thinks the measure will ultimately pass. >> i really see this funding having the potential for us to prepare for a moment like that where if the refineries do consider up and leaving, we can set money aside to really have a rainy day fund. >> the city council will vote to advance the measure on tuesday in richmond. tim johns, abc seven news. >> there's a new way to find out about refinery flaring and other quality concerns. the bay area air quality management district just announced a new notification service. residents
1:20 am
can sign up to get texts and emails about impacts to air quality in their area. you can sign up on the district's website. >> she made us all believe that her story was true. every single day she committed to the lie. >> the ex his ex faced her own kidnaping and got the world's attention for it. >> now he's sharing his side of the story. >> mcdonald's put artificial intelligence to work in the drive through line, and it didn't like the results. >> one step closer to making a summer splash, a popular water park is making progress, but when will it open? >> first, a look at what's coming up tonight on jimmy kimmel live! right after abc seven news at 11. jimmy. >> thanks, dan. and i'ma stay up late or the bad guys win. >> and then a friend said, do you want me to go introduce you? and so he brought me over there, and i couldn't believe i was and i couldn't believe i was meeting

1:28 am
more than halfway there? has it gone? >> heat is going up. we need the water park open. meteorologist sandyha patel is here with the forecast, including what's happening on the fire lines. >> yeah, we definitely have some hot weather coming, but we still have several days to go. ama and dan let me show you the smoke layers from the fires that are burning in northern california. uh- the site fire in colusa county, sending us a lot of smoke tonight as the sun was setting from our mount tam cam. you can certainly see the layers just below the sun there. so there are the smoke layers right there. and we're going to continue to see this. right now the air quality is moderate in san francisco. so parts of san rafael and out towards solano county. as we take a look at the smoke forecast, you will notice that midnight still looking at some smoke impacts from the north bay to parts of the east bay. and as we head into 2 a.m. less, but it's still there. continuing into tomorrow morning. and this will keep going as we head into the afternoon with the wind flow
1:29 am
that fire will continue to send us smoke. we do have an air quality advisory for tomorrow. moderate air quality expected. north bay coast and central bay good elsewhere. but if you are particularly sensitive, just keep in mind that it's not a good idea to really expose yourself to the smoke if the weather is cooperating, it's not too warm inside. close your doors and windows and put your ac on recirculate. red flag warning is up and down the state in the central valley, so we're not alone. solano county does have that red flag warning going. still, you will notice that there is no fog to speak of. the skies are clear other than a few high, thin, wispy clouds and your temperatures right now, anywhere from the 50s to the 70s. pretty mild outside. live view from our sutro tower camera. looking at san francisco through early morning, we do have that red flag warning tomorrow. still breezy to gusty. nothing like the winds we experienced over the weekend and wednesday. the fog is back. higher humidity will hopefully help the firefighters on the fire lines as we go. hour by hour 2:00 in the afternoon you will notice the winds are gusty
1:30 am
near the coastline over 30 miles an hour. a little breezy to windy as we head into the afternoon and evening. even over our inland areas. the biggest concern is the humidity is going to continue to drop off. so tomorrow morning, not so much. humidity is still pretty good as you will notice, but then we go into the afternoon and you're down in the single digits. santa rosa, 16% in napa, 21% in concord. so that fire danger will still remain elevated, especially with the dry grasses out there. the fuel levels for fuel moisture is running low upper 40s to the mid 60s. tomorrow morning. there will be some high clouds around tomorrow afternoon. it's going to be a mild to warm day. i think the coast temperatures will come down a few degrees. so low 60s there all the way to the upper 80s inland and once again a breezy one. as you check out the accuweather seven day forecast, there will be plenty of sun tomorrow. cooler for juneteenth. some is coming in on thursday, and as it begins at 150 in the afternoon, the heat is for on
