flames of the mendocino complex fire that already burned 75,000 acres. some residents of a rural community called potter valley had been evacuated. they were allowed in today, but not miguel, who was forced to leave his home saturday. you could see the thick plume of smoke shooting over the mountain near his home. >> it's kind of over. >> the mountain? >> yeah, over the mountain. i'm more on the left side of it. >> the left side of the mountain is where the fire is heading, a fire that's hard to contain. the firefighters' natural enemies, the heat, turbulent winds, and dry and abundant fuel. >> vegetation that is 10 to 20 foot tall, hasn't burned before. from my estimate, hasn't burned in decades. >> cal fire battalion chief fred lopez commands a strike team dubbed romeo romeo. they were getting supplies and checking equipment before going to sleep in these special trailers that has 42 beds. this is the fire base which houses some 2,000 firefighters.

they're all working 24-hour shifts. lopez's strike team worked until 8:00 a.m. this morning. but their resources are stretched thin. there are just too many fires in the state. reinforcements, however, are coming. >> we do have resources coming in from about six other states with other states helping from across the united states, including florida. >> we saw in the first contingent of national guard troops arriving. many were deployed with the chp at evacuation checkpoints. a powerful wind just started kicking up a little while ago. this is the kind of turbulent, violent wind that makes it so hard for firefighters. i might say the fire is pushing to the southeast, and firefighters last night had trouble containing it on the eastern edge and the southern flank. so this is where firefighters tonight will concentrate their efforts. vic lee, abc 7 news. >> that wind is scary to see,

vic. thanks very much. cal fire ge7ils special permission to fly over the devastation in redding's river ridge neighborhood. this is a result of the carr fire. and there are some just of the 884 homes destroyed by this terribly destructive blaze. more than 2500 structures are still at risk in both shasta and trinity counties. this fire has burned more than 110,000 acres and is now 27% contained. six people have died, including two firefighters and four people are listed as missing. in the past two hours, officials have located 60 people who had been listed as missing. abc 7 news anchor eric thomas continues our live team coverage from weaverville in trinity county. eric? >> and, dan, that's because weaverville was the site of a community meeting where cal fire briefed people on the progress of the fire. the carr fire as you mentioned started in shasta county. but in the words cal fire likes to use, it slopped over into

trinity forcing the evacuation of the small community of lewiston which is about 35 miles west of redding. some of the evacuees crammed into this 240-seat heater in weaverville to get the update from fire and law enforcement about the progress so far in fighting the carr fire. they heard that up to 38,000 people in both counties are out of their homes, and they don't expect the fire to burn any farther east towards redding, but some evacuees from lewiston say they are not getting enough info about what's happening on their side of the county line. >> it's just a repeat of everything that's happening in redding, which, you know, we're sad for all of that too. but this fire is still active on our side, you know. it's raging up there. >> moving as fast as we can at that. i can tell you, our number one priority besides safety is to get you home. >> well, cal fire says the winds are changing, and they are to adjust wit. they also say despite some hot spots, they made pretty good progress today. that's why evacuation orders

were lifted in the montgomery ranch area. but once again, that son the shasta county side of things. firefighters say they're trying their best to keep people informed, but they're not always able to get into specifics. we don't have the same gusty winds that i heard from vic lee down there in lakeport, but there are occasional gusts around here, and there is enough heat to keep firefighters on their toes and worried about where the fire may go next. but once again, that firefight continues with some weary firefighters on the line. in weaverville, eric thomas, abc 7 news. >> all right, eric. thank you so much. and all these nearby fires have us here in the bay area worrying about our air quality. solano county has issued a smoke health advisory. there is no spare the air alert. this live picture from our east bay hills tower camera shows slightly hazy skies. abc news weather anchor spencer christian joins us with the details. >> that smoke from the fires is certainly quite advisable in the bay area as we look eastward and northward.

despite that, our air quality here today is moderate to good all across the bay area. it may not remain that way very long. but at the moment we have good air quality. let me show you an air quality map that covers areas beyond the bay area. those yellow and green dots indicate moderate to good air quality which we have here. but notice to our east and northeast, all the orange and yellow circles, indicating poor or unhealthful air. not only in the fires in the sacramento valley, but all the way over to lake tahoe and north to medford, oregon. this is for tomorrow. this is tomorrow's outlook. even today air quality in those areas is poor to unhealthful. now the wind gusts have shifted to more of a north to south, or northwest to southeast flow. still carrying much of that smoke away from the bay area. but enough of it is blowing down into our area, as i mentioned, that we can see it off in the distance. and if it continues in that pattern, we'll likely see a little bit of a decline in our air quality as well. i'll keep monitoring it for you at the seven-day forecast coming up shortly. dan and ama? >> spencer, thank you.

from border to border, california is really burning. each icon on this map shows an active firefight involving cal fire there are more than a dozen wildfires right now to be contended with. cal fire has released a new interactive map designed to let evacuated residents see whether their homes are still standing. abc 7 news anchor kristen sze explains how it works. >> many people haven't been able to return to their neighborhood to check on their home. so they may find this cal fire tool very useful. it's an interactive map. you enter an address or a location. we put in lake redding estates, a community on the sacramento river that was scorched by the carr fire. we're just going to go a little closer in so you can get a good look at this particular circle formed by bedrock lane and harland drive. if you see green, that means the house has very minor damage. yellow means a little bit more, but still not a whole lot. now if you see orange, like that home, that means major damage. and red means the home is just

completely destroyed. if there is no color such as that, it means the house is either undamaged or they simply have no information. we want to take you back out just a little wider so you can see certainly in this neighborhood, most homes, sadly, have been destroyed. now cal fire cautions this interactive map is not conclusive. they're still assessing properties, and the data could change. but if you want the check it out, we have a link at abc7news.com. kristen sze, abc 7 news. now to the ferguson fire burning west of yosemite. it's now at 56,000 acres and creating a lot of smoke. that smoke is bad news for anyone hoping to visit yosemite this weekend. plans to reopen yosemite valley on friday have been delayed until sunday or later if the smoke doesn't clear. today park officials also closed hetch hetchy valley to transport. bay area organizations are

giants players. this is manaea, named after sean manaea. >> they're getting individual attention. they're out of the smell of smoke, which obviously if we can smell it, their sense of smell is so much greater. >> some of the cats and dogs will be up for adoption as early as wednesday, but you can take a peek on their website tonight. at arflife.org. in walnut creek, lyanne melendez, abc 7 news. >> such great work they do. >> yeah, absolutely. tomorrow was supposed to be the day you could download a blueprint to 3-d print your own gun. but today a judge put that on hold. >> coming up next, the continued challenges in court to keep these untraceable and undetectable firearms from being made by anyone. and does it still feel like 2016? facebook says it's stopping so

tomorrow was supposed to be the start of a new era in 3-d printing. instructions on how to make your own gun were to be released. but late this afternoon, a federal judge blocked the plan temporarily, much to the relief of gun control advocates, of course. abc 7 news reporter carolyn tyler is in the newsroom with the story tonight. carolyn? >> well, dan, eight states had sued to stop the download of designs for creating plastic weapons, including an ar-15 style rifle. a federal judge in seattle agreed to block the plans for now, citing a likelihood of irreparable harm. they're called ghost guns because they're untraceable and undetectable. blueprints for 3-d printed plastic guns were set to be released online tomorrow by a

texas company, leading to rallies like this one by critics on the steps of san francisco city hall. >> we're going to shut you down. we're going to shut you down. because all lives matter. because all lives matter. >> a texas student, cody wilson started the controversy in 2012 when he revealed his publishing plans. >> this thing will be completely unable to be regulated. i believe universal access to arms. >> the state department forced him to stop in 2013. he sued and the trump administration settled last month. 15-year-old gun control advocate jason chan says he is frustrated with the administration. chan helped organize the recent march for our lives in san francisco. >> anybody can bring these ghost guns into our schools and shoot up the school, and nobody will be able to trace it. >> earlier today, president trump tweeted i am looking into 3-d plastic guns being sold to the public. already spoke to nra. doesn't seem to make much sense.

the nra released this statement. regardless of what a person may be able to publish on the internet, undetectable plastic guns have been illegal for 30 years. that doesn't calm critics like san francisco supervisor katherine stephanie, whose asking the city attorney to help craft legislation to push back. >> the bottom line is felons, domestic abuser, terrorists, those adjudicated too mentally ill to own guns, and any other person unable to legally purchase a firearm can now print one at home. >> and today democrats and congress introduced two pieces of legislation designed to permanently regulate the plastic guns. congresswoman nancy pelosi saying that's necessary for the sake of safety and lives. in the newsroom, carolyn tyler, abc 7 news. >> all right, carolyn, thank you. new at 6:00, san francisco strikes a first of its kind deal in california to tax uber and lyft rides.

midterm elections. the menlo park based company announced it has banned dozens of pages and accounts that may have been working together to spread false information. abc 7 news reporter chris nguye has reaction from silicon valley. >> it appears facebook is now taking a proactive approach as part of its ongoing investigation into election interference. the social media giant announcing today it was banning 32 pages and accounts created in the past year and a half on facebook and instagram. >> i think it's important that everyone sees the information out there, and then they can do their own research to see what's true and what's not true. >> the accounts are responsible for publishing more than 9500 posts all together, and had spent nearly $11,000 on advertising. one of the accounts had more than 290,000 followers. facebook can't say for certain whose behind the attack, but did say it was reminiscent of russian-linked accounts during the 2016 presidential election. >> this kind of act by the bad actors can put the wrong people in different positions. at the same time can shield the

right people from being in decision-making positions there. >> silicon valley cybersecurity expert says transparency needs to be the focus moving forward since these so-called bad actors have become more sophisticated. >> it's going to kill our trust in the tech companies, in the system itself. the government and in the voting system. and we don't want to get to that, that part. >> in a statement, facebook chief security officer alex stamos said we have invested heavily in people and technology to detect inauthentic attempts to influence political discourse. and enforcing our policies doesn't require us to confidently attribute the identity of those who enact them. it's a wake-up call. >> part of what we're all having to learn is how to navigate this new informational environment, and how to be a little bit smarter about who we choose to trust. >> fighting the force of misinformation, one social media account at a time. in silicon valley, chris nguyen,

abc 7 news. let's focus on the weather. of course we're watching conditions on the fire lines. we saw wind kicking up little while ago life. >> abc 7 news anchor spencer christian is here with the latest. spencer? >> it's been very windy in the area of the fires. windier today overall than yesterday. here is a look at live doppler 7. we have fog pressing up against the coastline, mainly sunny skies over the bay and inland, and it's a bit breezy here in the bay area as well. we have wind speeds of 20 miles per hour here in san francisco and across the bay in oakland, all around the bay, 12 to 15-mile-per-hour winds. and up at clearlake, 21-mile-per-hour winds right now with occasional gusts that are stronger. here is the few from sutro tower of the fog pushing out over the bay and over the city of san francisco, where it is 58 degrees right now. 63 in oakland. mountain view, 64. 69 at san jose. it's 87 in morgan hill. it looks like a sea of tranquility there with a little bit of low cloudiness pushing over, looking westward from emeryville.

75 in santa rosa. napa 71. 93 at concord and 86 in livermore. and the view from the east bay hills camera. you can see looking towards the east that there is that layer of smoky air and haze that's building, of course, because of the smoke spewing from those fires. here is our forecast. this is our forecast panel here, i should say. foggy and misty conditions will prevail near the coast and bay early tomorrow morning. we might even see some spotty drizzle in one or two locations near the coast. hazy, smoky afternoon skies will prevail as well. minor temperature swings up a little and down a little going into the weekend. here a's a look at overnight conditions. we'll see the fog over the bay. it may not push far inland at all. we expect mainly clear skies inland. some of the east bay locations inland will be pretty mild overnight with low temperatures in the upper 50s to low 60s. a little cooler around the bay, mainly mid 50 there's. and cooler on the coast and up in some north bay valleys where lows will drop into the low 50s tomorrow.

tomorrow look for mainly sunny skies with fog lingering at the coastline. it will be breezy, especially at the coast. highs will range from about 60 at the coast to mainly low and mid-70s around the bayshore line. generally mid to upper 80s although one or two spots may top out at 90 degrees. it will be hazy to our east and north. now a look at projected air quality for tomorrow. once again, the yellow and green circles indicate moderate to good air quality, which we will have here over most of the bay area. but just to our east and north, look at all the orange and red, indicating poor to unhealthful air quality. that's not likely to improve as the fires continue to burn. here is the accuweather seven-day forecast. a little bit cooler on thursday than tomorrow. but temperatures bounce back about 4 to 6 degrees inland on friday. and then temperatures drop again on saturday. sunday and monday will be relatively cool and pleasant days. mainly sunny skies. highs in the upper 80s inland. upper 70s around the bay. and we'll see slightly warmer weather developing on tuesday of next week. i'll keep monitoring conditions at the fires. >> all right, thank you,

still threatened. the fire is 12% contained. around 2,000 firefighters are work 24-hour shifts to deal with this. the carr fire in shasta county is up to 27% containment. this afternoon, authorities said 20 people were missing, but thanks to social media, 16 of those people were found, and the list is now down to just four. >> and the carr fire now ranks as the seventh most destructive wildfire in california history. >> on the top ten list, it is the only fire that did not happen in the fall or winter. it's proof that we're seeing more destructive fires much earlier in the year than we're used to. >> abc 7 news reporter leslie brinkley looks into what could stop these changes. >> could what's happening up in northern california happen here in the bay area? >> sure. i mean, you look -- we brag about the open areas that we have in the bay area. you look at the hilltops covering the east bay. they're all vulnerable to that same fuel, the fuel load that's out there. >> here in the east bay, urban

areas interface with wild lands. on the back side of mt. diablo, last week was a warning. a fire was tamped down but clse to housing developments. >> there is so much dead wood out there and fuel for any fire up and down this state, i'm surprised the whole state isn't burning at times because of the fuel load that's out there. >> the drought years killed millions of trees across the state and here in the bay area. >> with the 2016 rains, the big storms that came in, and all that new vegetation grew, and now it's dead again. it just compounded the issue. we just have a massive fuel loading everywhere in the foothills and in the state. >> these fire experts say there is really not much that would dramatically reduce the risk this fire season. perhaps a little more vegetation control house by house, street by street. but control burns are out of the question. >> control burns are tough, because particularly when you're in a really urbanized area like

we are, a control burn is still a fire. and you can still have a house go up. so control burns are not really the answer in a place like this. >> doing control burns this late in the year right not be the solution, but something we need to look at over the winter. >> we need to come up with a solution as a state. every year it's been getting a little worse. every year a little worse. and this year it seemed to hit really early. it's a lot worse now. >> there is no clear-cut easy answer? >> no. because we've never experienced this before. >> we're in uncharted territory. the experts say pray for an early start to the rainy season. in walnut creek, i'm leslie brinkley, abc 7 news. >> and check out this new video we're seeing from when the carr fire exploded in size last week. justin sanchez was recording from the back of a pickup truck as his family evacuated. flames could be seen burning near homes with the firenado looming in the background. sanchez's home was destroyed. and we put all of our wildfire information online on
