Over the last three days California has experienced a historic heat wave and lightning siege that has resulted in more than 300 new fires. In our district alone, we are currently responding to the continued threat of the LNU Lightning Complex Fire that has already burned more than 131,000 acres. Given the speed of these developments, it is important that we all keep a close eye on developments related to road closures, evacuations, and shelters locations, for our safety and the safety of our family friends and neighbors.
Please visit the Cal Fire website for the most up-to-date information on the LNU lightning Complex Fire. If the website is down, live updates are also available on both Cal Fire LNU Twitter and Facebook accounts.
