Heatwave, fireworks pose high fire danger during week of July 4 holiday, Bay Area firefighters say
Briefly

Typically we see a lot of foggy mornings in May. 'No Sky July' and the 'June Gloom.' We really haven't seen a lot of those foggier, heavier moisture week mornings. What we've seen, right now, is just a lot of dry back-to-back weeks. -- Paul Lowenthal, Santa Rosa Fire Department
It has already been one of the busiest starts to a fire year in the CAL FIRE Sonoma-Lake-Napa Unit with over 20,000 acres already burned. That is more acres burned than the Unit saw over the entire three previous years combined. -- Cal Fire tweet
We have seen a lot of our fire activity develop in the higher elevations and push down into the valley floor over the last several years. And so that is always a concern of ours. -- Paul Lowenthal, Santa Rosa Fire Department
Really, with what we are seeing, the excessive growth of seasonal grasses, the dry conditions, the winds, the humidities, we have a lot of concerns headed into this holiday week. -- Paul Lowenthal, Santa Rosa Fire Department
