The Fire


The fire began about 10 p.m. October 8 near Atlas Peak. It started south, fed by winds, gusting to 28 miles per hour, and low relative humidity at 12%.[7]


On October 12, winds were forecast to reach 40 mph, but were lighter than expected, slowing the growth of the fire.[6]



Evacuations


Evacuations started at Silverado Resort,[8] and at Vichy Avenue and Hagen Road area, then Montecito Boulevard and Monte Vista Avenue.[9]


After the evacuation center at Crosswalk Church quickly reached maximum capacity, one was opened at Napa Valley College and St. Apollinaris Catholic Church.
There are other evacuations centers such as:


  • Allan Witt Park, 1741 W Texas St, Fairfield,

  • Solano Community College, 4000 Suisun Valley Rd, Fairfield, and

  • Fairfield High School, 205 E. Atlantic Avenue, Fairfield.[9]


  • Sonoma Raceway open their campgrounds.[10][11]

The evacuations for Solano County are Upper and Lower Green Valley, Eastridge. The advisory is for the Lakes, and The Shopping Centers for Cordelia.[12]
In Sonoma, there were mandatory evacuation orders first at Seventh Street East, Castle Road, and Lovall Valley Road; then at East Napa Street.[13] An evacuation advisory was issued for parts of the city of Napa.[14]
