Wildfires 101

We’ll get an update on the Bay Area wildfires. Then--everything you
want to know about wildfire, but are afraid to ask. What does
"containment" mean? How big is an acre? What kinds of vegetation
are likely to burn? Which is worse - when flames "back down" or
"lay down"? We'll talk to firefighters and others who can translate
these terms for the rest of us.  We’ll also hear what it’s
like getting up close to the fires and how best to protect your
home from wildfire.
