because that was the source of that massive of fire east bay firestorm in 1991. up in the east bay hills. they put the fire out. they fought. and it still lived underground in the route and then reignited. and then we all know what happened after that. so >> we know painfully well. what happened and that is what they have learned so much over past couple of decades, right? so they're not going leaving boy. every enforcement. they've caught multiple agencies out here. and then i was also talking whether they're going to be flying at night and that kind of a new development able to have these helicopters to be able to have night vision goggles so that they can fly at night and track in for wentz. a lot of new technology is really helping firefighters out on the line. speaking of which we haven't seen any drones out here, but i do know that pg and e has putting drones up into the air to try and see if they can see any kind of down lines that might cause some problems as well. there a huge

contingency up eugenie out here. >> because there are lots of power lines out here. so they need to make sure that thos energized. but that doesn't cause any kind of they have no idea what happened to start this fire. so i will i want to make sure that there is no correlation about pg anything out here. and we're in idea making any kind of connection. so right now they don't know what started the fire. they just know that it started in the afternoon. i talked with the resident nearby. she said that if you really stirring up some emotions for her because she was out here when the glass fire erupted in exact same area. and we know back in 2020, but the glass fire caused lot of damage and stirred up a lot of emotions here to have another fire sparking exact same area. grant vicki. >> yeah, it's hot out there. you mentioned earlier that the fire firefighters are out are suffering from heat exposure. do we know what their condition is?
