Thousands of Northern California residents awoke to flames on
Monday, as dry conditions and high winds caused multiple fires to
explode in size overnight. The Glass Fire - after merging with the
Boysen Fire in St. Helena and Shady Fire near Santa Rosa - scorched
an estimated 11,000 acres in Napa and Sonoma wine country. Tens of
thousands have been forced to evacuate as of Monday afternoon.
We'll get an update on the wildfires and evacuations and we want to
hear from you: if you live in the affected regions or you've been
evacuated, share your experiences.
