Officials told residents of Weed, Lake Shastina and Edgewood to evacuate after the blaze spread quickly in hot and windy conditions.
WEED, Calif. — A fast-moving fire in Northern California threatened hundreds of homes Friday and authorities ordered at least 5,000 residents across three communities to leave immediately.
Christopher Rock, an employee at the Mayten Store in Montague, a town 30 miles north of Weed, said evacuees from the fire had swarmed the pumps.Marco Noriega, brewmaster at Mount Shasta Brewing Company, said they received the notice to evacuate about an hour ago and he sent the 10 customers and three employees away. He said the power is out and they have received little information.
Willo Balfrey, 82, an artist from Lake Shastina, said she was painting on Friday afternoon when she got a call from a grandson in the California Highway Patrol to warn her of the fast-spreading flames. “I’ve reached the philosophy that if I have all my paperwork, what’s in the house is not that important,” she said.She stopped to load her car-less neighbor into her own vehicle and they drove about 20 miles away to a church parking lot in Montague she’s passed before in her travels.
Containment of the Route Fire along Interstate 5 north of Los Angeles increased to 37% and it remained at just over 8 square miles in size, a California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection statement said.Firefighters were focusing on mopping up hotspots and building more containment lines, trying to get most of the hard work done before the midday heat, Cal Fire said.
