( steve ) another big story tonight. more and more people are returning tonight to see what if anything is left of their homes following the north bay firestorm. we have seen a few stories of people finding cherished treasures in the ashes. ( pam ) this afternoon, we put up our quad copter- four ... over some of the burn areas in santa rosa.( steve ) the pictures that came back are pretty stunning... and you can see the scope of the devastation. grant lodes is here with the new video. ( grant ) as we get more access... we are getting an even better grip on just how devastating the firestorm was. one area we went to was the hilton in santa rosa. you may remember these pictures from two weeks ago. the hotel was in flames and still burning some 24 hours after the fires first erupted.

from what we could see at that time...there was not a whole lot left of the 250 room hotel. this is what the property looks like today from our drone.... keep in mind it was a three story building. now... there is basically just ash and a frame of what was the hotel. a few walls are still standing... but outside of that... you would have no idea what once stood there. we reached out to hilton today to see if they have any plans to rebuild and reopen the hotel.. we have not heard back. we also sent our drone to fountain-grove... that is another part of santa rosa that has been hit especially hard. the video makes your jaw drop. we have been talking about devastation... but when you see the neighborhood from the air... the pictures are beyond words. there is nothing

left. you see burned up trees... maybe a few items that survived and some framing... but the homes that were there... gone. for the most part is just ash and the foundations of where the homes once stood. it is hard to put an exact count right now on the number of people who lost their homes in this neighborhood... but we know from santa rosa's mayor... nearly 29-hundred houses burned in the firestorm. and cal fire last week stated that the tubbs fire which did all this damage... it is the most destructive wildfire in state history. you can view more of you can view more of our drone video on our website... kron four dot com. (pam) with thousands of homes destroyed in the north bay firestrom ... removing debris will be a monumental task. at a news conference and community meeting this afternoon, federal, state and local

officials announced... the work will get underway this week. it will begin with the environmental protection agency removing hazardous waste from all properties. the next phase will be ash removal, which will also include removal of the properties foundations and chimneys. the army corps of engineers will do this work and residents will have to opt in for this part if they do, it will all be free of charge. and at an accelerated pace. community members raised concerns about whether signing the 'opt-in' form .... keeps them from being liable should there be a problem. others were concerned 'opting in'

would force the automatic removal of foundations. a second community meeting has been scheduled for thursday from 6- to 8-pm at the santa rosa high gymnasium there is a new website for fire victims to go to tonight. sonoma county and the city of santa rosa have combine their efforts... this is sonoma county recovers dot org. it features all sorts of vital links and guides for those who may have lost their homes or sustained some sort of damage during the wildfires. a link is also on our website kron- four-dot-com. ( pam ) we know at least one more winery is open tonight in the sonoma valley. ledson winery and vineyards says.. its popular castle is back in business. the c-h-p took this video a week- and-a-half ago of the flames closing in on the winery and vineyard. but firefighters held them off and the castle escaped... unscathed. the vineyard did sustain a little bit of damage but nothing

severe. ledson says, it needs to repair some irrigaation lines as soon as conditions will allow for the work. (steve) as part of the recovery effort... the american red cross opened a service center today in santa rosa. it will be at the red cross office... and open every day through next sunday. the service center helps familes who have been affected by the wildfires with everything from referals to financial assistance. but people must bring some sort of proof to show where they lived. this could be a phone bill or utility bill. (steve) firefighters are getting a hold on the bear fire in the santa cruz mountains. this morning all evacuation orders were lifted. the wildfire is now 79- percent contained. the flames have burned nearly 400 - acres. the fire has destroyed four buildings. nine firefighters have been injured. just ahead .. hibernation time .. why yosemite park goers are seeing fewer bears, and why that is likely a good thing. an amazon delivery one couple was

been going each year and i've been able to see at least one bear, so that's kind of the goal when i go!"ksee 24 news employee denora miller was in sequoia national park earlier this month when she captured these black blears on camera. denora miller/ saw bear in sequoia np: "i was excited! i love seeing the bears and i love seeing them in their natural habitat."but from sequoia... up to yosemite, sightings of bears have actually taken a sharp decline. ryan leahy/ wildlife biologist ynp: "we get a lot of complaints now that we're not seeing as many bears, but the reality is your not seeing as many bears in the developed areas of yosemite national park nearly as much as you would have say nearly 10 years ago."ryan leahy is a wildlife biologist in yosemite national park, and has been responding to bear encounters for ten years.ryan leahy/ wildlife biologist ynp: "when i first got here in 2007, we'd be out all night chasing bears, in campgrounds all night every night, setting traps, catching bears every night, maybe 2, 3 bears a night. to now, we haven't had a night incident and quite a while."videos of bears rummaging through campsites and even climbing through cars were common through much of the 80's and 90's. but why the change? it all has to do with the habits of these often intimidating but naturally shy animals.ryan

leahy/ wildlife biologist ynp: "bears are naturally not nocturnal, there out during the day, so if bears are acting natural there exhibiting natural behaviors they are less likely to have night activity which is what we're seeing."changes such as bear proof trash cans and measures taken by both campers and park employees have made human food and trash, which was once easy pickings for a hungry bear, a much less convenient option."ryan leahy/ wildlife biologist ynp: "it's really interesting to see these bears behaving naturally, a lot more-so than when they were confined to campgrounds and high conflict areas with people, parking lots. there was a time when you'd be walking through a parking lot in camp 4 and there's be 10 vehicles broken into."but this decrease doesn't mean that these bears or even people are out of the woods when it comes to potentially dangerous encounters.ryan leahy/ wildlife biologist ynp: "22 incidents right now, 22 bears being hit by vehicles." keep-bears-wild-dot-org is a website run in part by park employees like leahy and allows both staff and visitors to see areas where bears have not only been hit by cars... but also shows where gps tagged bears have roamed within the past month.ryan leahy/ wildlife biologist ynp: "every year we kind of have a similar pattern, where there's a little bit of downtime in september, then october and november become a little busier as bears struggle to get those calories they're looking for."a busier time of year for these bears and for excited park visitors like miller, but to the excitement of officials like leahy, also a time of year when these bears are looking for food the way they did long before

yosemite was flooded with people.ryan leahy/ wildlife biologist ynp: "as of this point of time in 2017 our incident totals, which are yosemite says, the number of reports of bears getting into visitors' food or damaging property has dropped by 98-percent since peaking in 1998. let's take a look outside right now...(pam) chief meteorologist brittney shipp joins us now with the four zone forecast. .a rapid warming trend that got underway today will persist into tuesday with the potential for record to near record breaking daytime temperatures. temperatures cool slightly as offshore flow and the high pressure aloft weakens by midweek, yet temperatures look to remain above seasonal averages through late week. in addition, ongoing dry conditions will likely persist through the end of the month.
