Brothers some of our friends over in the Clear Lake area are suffering terribly. This after enduring last years devastation. Send your well wishes here. @Skip and @Payaso I hope you are both safe and well...
LOWER LAKE, Lake County — Only as the embers began to cool on Monday did the devastation of the region’s latest wildfire become clear.
Entire blocks of homes in Lower Lake, a community of 1,300, were leveled. A small winery, auto shop and realtor office were gone. The high school, which was supposed to open for class this week, was still intact, but its sports fields were singed and dozens of surrounding houses had burned. School was canceled for the unforeseeable future.
While the advance of the 4,000-acre blaze had slowed, at least for the time being, the fire was just 5 percent contained and thousands remained under evacuation orders, many not knowing the fate of their property.
