garden hose. we do know the number of the patrick, good morning again. using this garden hose -- you were asked to evacuate, you acreage right now about 2,500 didn't. why? >> i'm sitting here trying to acres. zero percent containment as the defend my property. winds are causing an issue as i just want to -- i want to the fire continues to spread. meteorologist kari hall has been monitoring that for us this morning. protect it as much as i can. talk to us about that. if it does come to that point i know wind gusts, we heard bob where i have to go, then i'm out and cierra talk about that. how strong are the wind gusts of here. we're talking about this >> reporter: wife and kids already left. >> it's just me at this point. morning? >> some of the ridge tops we've it's me and my chickens. seen wind gusts over 50 miles an i have six chickens in the joee hour. it may not be that high in the valley but we've seen the fires and we're going to go and do our coming over the ridges into the things. >> reporter: i spoke to the valleys because of those high chief and they said they have an winds aloft and so that red flag engine in the area. warning will be in effect for priority on protecting your elevations above 1,000 feet. home. does it make you feel better? >> yes. it feels like ever since this that's where we have the broke out i have a friend of critical fire conditions and because of these new fires mine who is at cal fire burning we have unhealthy air quality for today. personnel at the top of the hill and he called in a couple trucks everyone needs to be on alert. and they started taking care of it's very unhealthy to be out business, but it got out of hand with this wind, and now we're there even for longer than just a few minutes.

left with this. to be honest with you, i still and we have an excessive heat feel safe right here. warning that will continue to i feel like i'm protected and i the north with a heat advisory feel cal fire and santa rosa in effect for all of the bay fire department is doing a great job protecting me. area including san francisco so i'm just doing my today where temperatures will reach into the 90s. preventative measures. triple digits for the inland >> reporter: how does this compare to 2017? areas. we're dealing with smoke and i know the foyer came real heat. close. >> this is way worse than 2017. even right now it's very warm. take a look at the temperature in napa. 78 degrees. this is hitting home. closer to the fires temperatures 2017 it was on the ridge lines in the upper 80s and it's been holding steady there throughout around you and, okay, we can the night so we're not expecting manage this. this i watched come down the much cooler conditions in and around those fire zones. hills and into my valley and it's scary. it is going to be still really right now my house is still -- i'm still here defending my hot as we try to get containment house. >> reporter: you have a pretty good attitude. making it difficult to battle the fires in these conditions >> underlying, i'm scared this where temperatures are reaching is scary. 100 degrees and slightly above yes, i'm trying to be as for today. we're still looking at a very positive as i can but underlying dry weather pattern as this high i'm scared this is too close for pressure sets up. it causes the air to sink and we comfort. >> reporter: i'll be thinking of you. also get around this high best of luck. i know the fire department's pressure. we get an offshore wind flow so

main priority is structure protection. that makes it very dry along >> i appreciate your concern. with the high wind gusts and thank you so much. we're not going to see many changes as we go through the week. >> reporter: so he is out the winds will start to calm spraying his fence with the down but the heat will remain and we're looking at temperatures throughout the rest garden hose. i told him it's probably not of the week inland staying in going to make much difference the 90s. when you have these kinds of san francisco will come out of flames here. the 90s, into the 80s tomorrow he was mentioning the wind is a big factor. out here earlier feeling gusts and then some 70s for much of the rest of the week. 40 miles an hour. the temperatures are obviously hot. it's 80 degrees. very warm and today those winds it's the middle of the night. will be very high. those are the kinds of templs mike, you've been watching the roads and closures in the north bay. you're dealing with. we've got you. they're bringing an engine in here from petaluma. we just got off talking to as i mentioned down this road julie and she mentioned angwin there is a house they're still trying to protect. on the right side of the screen that's the latest from santa coming in to calistoga. rosa. laura and marcus? she talked about getting down >> bob, those homes are spaced into her office. out just a bit. we're looking at santa rosa in how close are they to each the lower left. other? >> reporter: patrick's home, i skyhawk, oakmont reference mean, he has your standard track there. bob redell is closer to

housing distance, is my guess. i can't really see. observing monoakmont. maybe ten feet. cierra johnson is showing us a they're close. the assumption is if one home live picture of homes being goes up, the next home is in as destroyed by the fires. three major fires as we look at big trouble as the one that's road closures for 128. burning. what they have going for them right now is this field, there's highway 12 wants to be avoided. the fire coming very close. some defensible space. a good 100 feet, but it's windy the rest of your morning commute out here and there's embers and moves smoothly with no major concerns outside of those areas. so his home clearly is in danger. the fire department is aware of down to the major commute as far that. that's why they're bringing resources. as the bulk of the bay area only i can see on the other street looks like the battalion chief the slowing for north 680 coming is there trying to bring in up through fremont into sunol and a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza as well. resources. they've been evacuating, taking assure folks things are calm right there. care of that and saving the homes and that's why you have this engine going here. watch the areas in the north bay again, i can't see because of the smoke but there is a house back there and i can't tell if as we continue. back to you. the flames are impinging -- now >> three major wildfires are you can see more. burning. if you look up the ridge, the glass fire, boysen fire and the shady fir there's definitely a house. we have crews on the scene. you see the double a-frames, also we'll take you inside an

evacuation center in moments. it's 5:23. they're on fire. in business you have to be able to shift-pivot-adapt. there's stuff burning up there, unfortunately. >> it's just heartbreaking to see. here we go again. so many fires. thank you, bob. we'll continue to check with you this morning. so all of our reporters out in the field are talking about the heat, the winds, and kari, the low humidity. this is a trifecta of bad news for firefighters. >> absolutely. and we were expecting this and the reason they shut off the power to a lot of areas trying to do it preemptively and i wanted to show you the general area once again of where those three main fires are burning. we have more specific information including where those evacuation orders are in effect on nbcbayarea.com and on the nbc bay area app. it is so warm up there in the middle of the night. our temperatures are in the upper 80s, and we have these random wind gusts that come through that pick up and are carrying the smoke and the

embers off towards the south and southwest. that's spreading closer to the santa rosa area, why we're concerned about that especially as it comes off those hills down into the valleys. we have variable winds and that makes the fire conditions very unpredictable and so we see that our winds as we go into today will mostly come out of the north and northwest for parts of the north bay, but once again then do it all over again. it's been kind of changing comcast business gives you fast, reliable internet direction and then as we go into this evening it's going to shift on the nation's largest gig-speed network. from the south into tomorrow, and now for a limited time, you can also get fast shipping- more of a breezy southerly wind with amazon business prime essentials. may spread the fire in a different direction. so no matter what comes next, so very concerning at this point you'll always be ready to bounce forward. as we have hot temperatures and get started with powerful internet and voice very low humidity. for $64.90 a month, and ask how you can get that's something we will continue to monitor throughout one free year of amazon busines prime essentials on us. the morning. let's head over to mike. you've been keeping an eye on call or go online today. those evacuation orders and the comcast business. road closures. what's the update now? >> well, kari, things are in flux but highway 12 was a big concern. you talked about angwin and

calistoga, santa rosa. we're talking about the area bob was reporting just outside of oakmont, between oakmont and skyhawk as marked on the map. those are two communities you'll hear referenced a lot because our reporters are along highway 12. lots of folks told to get out of the area and we advise to you heed those warning. calistoga, lots of areas and bigger roadways. silverado trail. we'll talk about those coming up. i want to show the rest of your commute as well. your typical slowing through fremont and into sunol. back to you. >> thank you, mike. back to that fire zone for you in the north bay this morning. >> that's right. that's where we find bay by's crei "today in the bay's" cierra johnson. a lot going on there. it is 5:26. staying on top of our breaking >> reporter: there is so much going on. news, fast moving fires causing the thing about covering a fire extensive damage overnight in the north bay. it really hits all of your senses. right now i am soaked. i feel the water that the wind is picking up from that first

these fires are burning out of house we brought to you at 4:00. control with no hard numbers yet on the acreage that has burned. we showed you this house at so far there are no reports of 4:00. the back was not as fully any deaths or injuries. engulfed as it is. we do know, sadly, some homes you can see the wind has really are destroyed. picked up. and i'm assuming that's what some wineries are reporting damage or destroyed structures. thousands of residents in the intensified the flames, the areas are evacuated right now. house at the corner of nighthawk and mountain hawk. i'm not sure how clear the picture is because the smoke is napa and santa rosa just north thick as well as the feedback from that hose. of petpetaluma. but they have been really >> some of the most terrifying focusing on the back of this house. now this house, as i mentioned images coming through social media. for the last hour, resembles so this is from matthew henderson. he was doing a facebook live, many other houses on this side of the street. we're on mountain hawk here in about two hours long and it santa rosa. so many houses. all you see are the flames, if mt. hawk and san ramon. that. again, the back of this house we spoke to matt on the video completely engulfed. it's about five houses from and the fires and what we saw there. where we'vehe wind has

severely >> the fire settled down. we thought we would be okay in the skyhawk subdivision and then not only because of the water hitting us but the ash in the air. very, very active scene here. a wind shift and as cierra we've seen some of the fire started saying home after home engines that were near this started going up. first home one of the more there wasn't a lot firefight severely burned homes in the subdivision when you come up the koeers could do about it. street. further down the vet to where we >> many waited until the last were, i'm assuming because of minute to leave causing a backup the wind and those embers that we've mentioned have spread to on highway 12. other homes. we are dealing with the fires and we'll have that as we come but a very active scene. back. a quick break. it is 5:28 for you this morning. i put my goggles on because of the wind and the water and also because it has become a lot of stuff in the air, a lot of stuff in the air. guys? >> certainly -- >> have to be very careful about that particulate matter in the air. >> absolutely. cierra johnson for us in santa rosa. we'll come back to you in just a bit. a look at some of the new evacuation orders. this is in sonoma county and

take a look here, the area shaded in orange as you see this morning, that is under evacuation now. now the latest zone to evacuate is north of st. he llena road. these evacuations can change as the fire continues to grow throughout the morning. that area you've seen how one house after another catching fire as it continues to grow and move. that area in blue is under mandatory evacuation orders. we'll continue to cover this breaking news, what's been a frantic night in the north bay as thousands have been forced to evacuate from all of these fast-moving fires. we'll talk with someone who had a long night on the front lines giving an up close look at heartbreaking scenes of fire destroying homes when we come back. it's 5:11 right now.

right now at 5:30 that breaking news for you this morning. sonoma county neighborhoods under siege right now from wildfires raging out of control. we are getting new images of those structures, even homes burning right now. there have been waves of evacuation orders coming overnight with those gusty winds fueling the flames. several neighborhoods right now in santa rosa under evacuation. here is a look at where the three fires are burning. the glass fire burning between st. helena and calistoga and battling the boysen fire and shady fire. >> we want to thank you for joining us this morning as we came on early for you at 4:00 to bring you the latest news on these fires burning this morning. i'm marcus washington. >> and i'm laura garcia. we're going to check in with mike because he has a great look

at some of the evacuation areas and how to get out and the road that you should definitely avoid. don't go up to that area. let's check in with meteorologist kari hall. firefighters are up against so much. we'll check in with kari in a bit. straight out to bob redell right now. he has a look here near highway 12 i understand, bob. >> reporter: i'm south of highway 12. a mile east of oakmont or west. we're in the backyard of a home being protected and this is in their backyard. this large home in the hills right now at 5:14 we are burning the last 30 minutes. i believe it started firing still under the microclimate during our last live report which was at 5:00 and, unfortunately, it's a horrible weather alert. bob redell is reporting live sight for the people who live there. just off highway 12 where we are that home is gone. seeing many homes burning in the we're going to try to get up area. we will also still have high there at 6:00. winds, unfortunately, causing more of those flames to spread you can see the spot fires and

as this red flag warning continues today. it has been extended until 9:00 30 minutes ago a lot of fire this evening meaning the low surrounding the house. humidity and the high winds will so far so good. continue today. we're tracking this as well as our temperatures in the forecast their fire protection has been coming up. working. it's been like fires come up and no major issues for your morning commute. this area in the north bay -- or go out. once the camera light gets these areas as we zoom in you closer to the house you can see the structure right here which see santa rosa, calistoga. talking about the evacuation so far is saved. zone increased in the last few hours. petaluma fire has a crew of three men out here with hoses and then the next is a silverado trail, deer park. the roadways for this area neighborhood. you see the left and a series of following the changes and they are happening quickly, laura. smaller homes and you can see the fire truck doing the same thing going out trying to put out the spot fires. residents at the oakmont patrick ryan who lives in one of garden assisted living center these homes was told to had to evacuate as the flames evacuate. he evacuated his wife and kids. approached their area there. he has his six chickens in the this is in east santa rosa. most of these people don't have jeep if he needs to go.

cars so they had to bring in he's trying to keep the fire buses to get them out, some of from coming in with the garden the flames that were happening all around them as the shady hose. >> way worse than 2017. fire grew. this is hitting home. 2017 it was like on the ridge the residents were taken to lines around you. safety. 120 residents had to be okay, we can manage this. evacuated from that facility. this i watched come down the hill and into my valley and take this out and it's scary. more than 4,500 residents but they did what they could to get everybody out. >> reporter: back out here live >> i'm glad they were able to we're down the street from patrick's home to the firefight get them out. >> there are three major fires petaluma, are you doing good? really prompting many rolling up some hose. evacuations. joining us on the phone is julie we've got to get water. they have to leave the scene and get water. who is evacuated from her home. there's only so much water they have in their engines and another fire scene water tender where is home for you? showed up, a private water >> home is off deer park road in tender, to refill the tanks. we're in a relatively rural angwin. we were evacuated yesterday area. i don't know what the fire morning at 5:00. >> talk to me about that hydrant situation is but there's not one close enough. process. did you get a call? they have to go get water and did they come through the come back and hope this fire

neighborhood? what happened? >> well, a neighbor came and here doesn't below and start pounded on our doors and tried causing embers to light up this to roust everybody and get us house. this gives you a sense of how going. he was honking his horn so we jumped up, figured out what was dangerous it is. an issue with the winds. going on. that is enemy number one. number two is the heat. we heard the alarms. went down to my office in st. driving through vallejo, 62 degrees in my car. helena. >> talk to us about the process got up here, jumped up to 88. of leaving. some video where there's been a right now probably around 80. backup, a large number of people as kari will tell you, these are trying to get out all at once. horrible conditions when you're trying to fight a fire. was it like that when you left? bob redell, "today in the bay." >> no, we got out early and >> i want to talk about from our there was no problem getting down the hill. vantage point it looks like it's you could see the fire on the a 360 view of just fire all around you. ridge. >> i'm sure you've been paying a is that really what you're lot of attention. dealing with right now? do you know if your enabled has been affected by the fire so >> we're going to start at 12:00 far? >> i do not know. and move to the left. you'll see this is an open field it is certainly very close, within a mile from my home. that has structures that burned down. it's an open field that is on

i'm hopeful but i don't know what to think. fire. if you were to look straight that way back there, the fire >> i imagine this is a scary came down the hill and across moment for you and your family highway 12. as you move to the left you can't see other homes. basically everything from over to here was or is on fire and they're trying to keep it from going over to here from the left to right this way and into this home. it's clearly burned in the back of this home. that was the house i was showing you earlier. in effect you could say it's mostly surrounded. fortunately, you know, there's a lot of the areas that have burned through already, the dead grass that's out here. you still have a risk of embers. the risk and the embers are burning, blowing like you see over there and catching this house on fire and other homes as well. >> it's really heartbreaking to see and you just see there are multiple agencies now responding and this is what they're coming

into. we'll check back with you. let's check in with meteorologist kari hall right now talking about the heat, the low humidity, the embers. this is a tough fire. i want to show you how many fires are burning. this shows the smoke in the upper levels of the atmosphere. smoke coming from the bear fire, the creek foyer and now we have the complex of the three fires that we are now dealing with in parts of the north bay as we get a closer look that smoke as it spreads to the south and southwest and exactly where those fires are burning, a general look at this area. we all know highway 12 and the silverado trail, you go up there to visit a lot of the vineyards and we look at the weather conditions this morning seeing temperatures right now southwest of angwin. it's hard to find a lot of sensors especially higher up. it's 87 degrees at this time in the morning.

it's so warm out there in the middle of the night. the humidity is low. we have a light wind and at times some of those upper elevations where the red flag warnings are in effect, you have those higher wind gusts that will come out of the north and northeast to about 15 miles an hour. you're not feeling it that much but it causes those fires to spread and the fire, of course, with all that heat creates its own energy and weather conditions. a lot to deal with as we watch these weather conditions in the north bay. mike, how is it looking for people evacuating in the rest of the bay area? kari, we'll start with the rest of the bay area because the commute is fine. slowing through fremont. i circled it there heading north into sunol out of fremont. that's your construction zone. should be cleared soon. getting up to the north bay, kari, evacuation areas. we're looking at the areas and all these closures and activity,

hazards marked out for calistoga. over here highway 12 you can see skyhawk where all these closures are marked there and oakmont. the area off oakmont between the two markers is where bob redell is showing us all those flames, those houses and where those fires were that bob was reporting and cierra is on the other side of the highway. i want to you avoid the entire area. there are many evacuations. i'll hand it right back to you. >> and from where bob is that is very close to where we have cierra johnson this morning for us. >> she joins us from the skyhawk neighborhood, very active there overnight. >> reporter: yes, house after house after house is on fire here. we've moved locations. we were getting pelted with the fire from the engines. we're on mountain hawk. i want to show you a lot of the

same we've been seeing before. the house directly in front of us xloetly gone and the house next to it they're working on it right now. you can see that car in the driveway, the alarm going off because of all of the commotion but this is the scene throughout the enabled. we were going to speak with a gentleman -- he walked away to check on his car. but we are right now in his driveway. this house, he chose not to evacuate. his parents lost their house in 2017 and just this year moved back. he said they've lived here for 15 years. the neighbors in the neighborhood are great. this isn't a neighborhood anymore. he said seeing houses demolished is just heartbreaking. the reason he stayed is the embers. the embers from the houses are crossing the street.

he said it's his decision to stay that saved his home. they're recommending that you leave. he said his decision to stay saved his home. when he come backs we'll try to get him back. on mountain hawk, they've been working on this home for quite some time now. there were flames shooting out of the top when we arrived. they seemed to have knocked that down but the whole back of the home. we have in idea what's going on back there. our thoughts are with the homeowners. i hope the individual is all right. a lot of emotions, a lot of people very attached to their homes and some folks making that decision to stay back. a lot of action here, guys. >> we've seen those homes fully engulfed and parts of the homes collapsed like the one behind you and we certainly hope thohe

to. cierra johnson reporting live in santa rosa. we'll get become to you in just a bit. next for you here on "today in the bay" we'll continue with that breaking news for you that morning as these fires continue to move very quickly. we have live team coverage for you on evacuation center in napa. our sharon katsuda is there talking to evacuees. we'll have that when we return. this election, all californians will be able to vote safely from home. every active, registered voter will receive a vote-by-mail ballot with a unique barcode. you can track it using where's my ballot? and you'll receive automatic notifications by text, email or to let you know the status of your ballo drop it off at your polling place

right now at 5:44 we monitor the relative monument and when it gets below 30% and we have some winds fires can spread rapidly. take a look at these numbers now. we're down to 8% relative humidity, critically dry conditions and still breezy. we'll talk about our fire conditions and the fires coming up in a few minutes. kari, the rest of the bay area as well we look at the bay bridge toll plaza, metering lights were turned on with no backup at first. things have gradually built over at the toll plaza side. the maps will outline areas we're talking three major fires santa rosa, calistoga and napa just over off to the side as well. for the latest back to you. >> that's right. that is the breaking news we are

covering for you turning into an even tougher morning in the north bay with those three fires as mike mention eed sweeping through. one of them, the shady fire, already caused extensive damage overnight. it is still raging out of control. the oakmont area of santa rosa. right now zero containment. no accurate assessment on the number of structures or acres burned. we have seen several go up in flames right before our eyes this morning. the good news here so far there are no reports of any deaths that have been tied to these fires. >> and a lot of people have been evacuated and that's where we see sharon katsuda at an evacuation center. sharon, i know a lot of people going through a lot this morning but have you been able to talk to anyone who has evacuated their home this morning? >> reporter: oh, yes, marcus,

several. there are about 30 people in line here right now. let's take a look at this line. we're not going to show close-up faces because we want to have privacy. the line was already probably about ten deep here with evacuees and they're having their temperature taken and they're getting their information taken so that they can be later told what hotel possibly they can stay at because since we're dealing with covid-19 these days they're not actually trying to let them in the center. most people are waiting to hear about the hotel and staying in their cars in the parking lot until they hear about the hotel situation. with me is mark. when did you find out you had to evacuate? >> when the flames got close and

the police officers wouldn't let me get back to my house. >> reporter: a lot of people stood by, they had the evacuation order. you knew you had to get ou. show us some of the video. you shot some video from your house. this is how extraordinary the flames were so close to your house. talk to us about that. >> really scary. they bypassed my mountain range near my home for about a good three hours and then eventually broke over and completely took over the whole mountain by my house. >> reporter: at this point you don't nope the condition of your house. you fled right when you saw all of the flames? >> yes. it was so close, it was just time to go. i have pets at home and i didn't want to risk any of it. >> reporter: you're saying it's very frustrating. 2017, same situation, different evacuation center. >> yes, exactly. >> reporter: at this point

you're pretty us from tritted and want to know the chances of your house like so many people you might consider leaving because you're so disheartened. >> i'm very of over fire. i'm over it for sure. would like to go somewhere a lot safer. >> reporter: thank you so much. i hope you go ahead and find your home safe and we're going to let you go back in line to try to get your hotel for the time being. thank you, mark, for joining us. so that's the situation. just to let you know some evacuees who have been through this before, in fact yesterday we talked to one evacuee who was here yesterday and she said he turned down the hotel that they offered last night because it wasn't so bad and wanted to free it up for someone else who might be in a worse situation. but then she found out that if you turn it down you have to physically come back and get back in line. if you are offered a hotel, just

take it. resources are taken up quickly in these situations. back to you. >> right. we're in the midst of a pandemic and it's so tough for people to just stay in their cars, to stay away. another great concern. through thank you, sharon. let's check in with meteorologist kari hall. we have some tough conditions, all of our reporters are saying how hot it is outside right now and, you know, with the wind in the area, this could be a tough day ahead for firefighters. >> it's going to be a very tough day. these are the worst conditions you can have in a wildfire season when you have an offshore wind as well as very low humidity and hot temperatures. and we're looking at those three main areas that we are continuing to monitor this morning as we are seeing it in a lot of spots if you don't live in this area you're familiar with this because you've been there as a tourist so looking at our weather conditions, how hot

it is. 87 degrees southwest of angwin. we look at our temperature trend throughout the morning it's going to stay very warm and continue to heat up as we go into the afternoon and it's spreading smoke across the bay area and so now with the shift in the wind, a northerly wind will bring that smoke into much of the north bay but also carry it to the east bay down to santa clara valley. so all of us are being affected by this. you need to limit your time outside. we also have the hot temperatures combining with the high fire conditions. so we do have the heat advisory for all of the bay area excluding the immediate coastli coastline. even there we're looking at temperatures in the 80s today and that will go into effect until 7:00 this evening. here's a look at our high for today. it's going to be still very hot. very much like yesterday. reaching into the triple digits in the east bay as well as the tri-valley, down to the south county and extending up towards

the north bay where santa rosa and ukiah will reach over 100 degrees. still looking at very dry conditions now that high pressure is setting up and that will block any more chances of any cooler weather or any storms across the pacific northwest. hot weather will continue throughout much of the week but then gradually that heat and high pressure will start to back off in time for the weekend. so as we look at our seven-day forecast we're reaching into the triple digits today and we don't have a heat advisory for tomorrow, but it's still going to be really hot and smoky. highs reaching into the upper 90s in some of our warmest spots. we're in the 90s throughout the rest of the week and even this weekend we're above normal with highs in the upper 80s. as we look at san francisco today once again another record breaking day with highs reaching into the 90s here. we're still very warm. the 80s tomorrow and then some mid-70s in the forecast for the rest of the week. the weekend we are going to have

some warm conditions not only in san francisco but across the bay area. we're watching those winds as well as the fire conditions. we'll have more on that. mike, what's the update on evacuation orders and road closures? those road closures continue to roll in. we'll see updates for the local areas. those change quicker than we can update the maps. we'll do our best. we're looking at the bay bridge toll plaza and metering lights turned on. it's still only 5:53. that's really the only issue there as we look at the rest of the maps we see a few other spots. we're looking at a little slowing for san jose and also fremont. north 680, that's the construction zone, the circle in san jose, typical build this time. no surprises on this map. as we get out to the north bay, we'll resume to calistoga, silverado trail, highway 28, highway 29 to angwin and

calistoga and st. helena. areas affected by fires with a lot of familiar roadways. highway 12 a big concern, we mark out skyhawk. you hear this talked about by bob redell and cierra johnson. avoid that area. those are evacuation zones. >> thank you. happening now another wildfire we're tracking this morning. this time in shasta county, the zogg fire. it has burned some 7,000 acres forcing new evacuations. there are reports of several structures there that have burned. >> and we will continue to follow the breaking news, three major fires burning in napa and sonoma counties. evacuating thousands of people, destroying homes. a live look of what is left. little of a home in the skyhawk neighborhood in santa rosa. also, we're covering the did i's major political news as well

welcome back. thank you for joining us for extended coverage this morning on "today in the bay" of the three fires that are burning, the glass, shady and boysen fires. these are live pics from the santa rosa neighborhood, the skyhawk neighborhood, where literally this morning we have seen home after home enveloped in flames completely destroyed. thousands of people are evacuated. stay with us as we continue our live team coverage. but we also have the day's news as well. developing for you right now president trump giving a two-word response to the explosive "new york times" report exposing years of tax returns. >> it's fake news. totally fake news. it's made up, fake. we went through the same story four years ago. i had to litigate this and talk about it.

totally fake news. actually i paid tax and you'll see that as soon as my tax returns -- it's under audit. they've been under audit for a long time. >> so he responded yesterday to the report alleging years of tax avoidance. well, "the times" says it has obtained tax information for the president going back more than 15 years showing he paid just $750 in federal income tax in 2016. this is when he ran for president. "the times" says he paid the same amount in the first year of office and actually paid no federal income tax during 10 of the previous 15 years. all of this mostly because he actually reported significant losses. you may remember mr. trump's refusal to release tax records was really a big sticking point during the runup to the 2016 election. his democratic nominee, joe biden, only response so far is a little ad posted to his campaign

late last night with no narration showing faces of taxpayers and tax payments. right now at 6:00 breaking news, wildfires, scenes reminiscent of a few years ago as flames tear through neighborhoods in santa rosa destroying everything. people fleeing for their lives. this morning high wind and high heat creating the most challenging conditions for firefighters trying to save homes. and a look at where the story is unfolding, the glass fire is burning between st. helena and cal stow go. firefighters are
