LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – California’s governor has declared a state of emergency due to the Mendocino Complex, which grew by more than 10,000 acres overnight.
The Ranch and River fires make up the 24,270-acre Mendocino Complex, which began on Friday in Mendocino County before moving into Lake County, burning aggressively in steep terrain, fueled by extreme heat, low humidity and gusty winds.
On Sunday morning Cal Fire said the Ranch fire, which began along Highway 20 near Potter Valley, has grown to be the largest of the complex’s two fires, burning 13,242 acres.
On Saturday evening the Ranch fire spread into the Mendocino National Forest, according to forest spokeswoman Punky Moore.
The River fire, which began along Old River Road six miles from Hopland, is up to 11,028 acres, and has destroyed four residences and one outbuilding.
Both fires remained at 5 percent containment on Sunday morning, for a total complex containment of 10 percent, Cal Fire said.
Combined, the fires are now threatening 4,587 structures, Cal Fire said Sunday.
Cal Fire said 820 personnel, 56 engines, 22 water tenders, six helicopters, 27 hand crews and 22 dozers are assigned to the complex.
Earlier reports had indicated injuries to firefighters, but Sunday’s report said none have occurred.
On Saturday afternoon, as the work continued on the complex, the Steele fire began in Napa County, threatening the Berryessa Highlands area, where a mandatory evacuation was later ordered.
Aircraft were pulled from Lake County’s fires and diverted to the Steele fire, with planes later sent back to the Mendocino Complex, based on radio traffic.
The Steele fire has burned 150 acres, destroyed seven structures and damaged one other, and is 50 percent contained, Cal Fire said Sunday.
On Saturday night, Gov. Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency in Lake, Mendocino and Napa counties due to the effects of the River, Ranch and Steele fires.
“Grateful to Governor Brown for declaring a state of emergency in both Mendocino and Lake Counties,” State Sen. Mike McGuire said on his Facebook page. “This declaration will help pave the way for enhanced state and federal financial assistance.”
On Sunday morning the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency reported that it has authorized the use of federal funds to assist the State of California to combat the River Fire burning in Mendocino and Lake counties.
Mandatory evacuations remain in place
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office ordered several mandatory evacuations throughout the day on Saturday, all of which remained in effect on Sunday morning.
A a mandatory evacuation at Sutter Lakeside Hospital was triggered during Saturday afternoon.
Sutter Health spokesman Clayton Warren issued an update Saturday night that said 13 patients were safely evacuated to nearby hospitals by 7:20 p.m.
“As the last patients left the hospital, emergency officials advised us that the fire risk for Sutter Lakeside was greatly reduced – and as a result – requested we keep the emergency department and obstetrics open. The medical/surgical units and the intensive care unit remain closed,” Warren said.
Evergreen Lakeport Healthcare also was reported to have been evacuated on Saturday, based on radio reports.
The entire city of Lakeport was under an advisory evacuation throughout the day Saturday and into Sunday, and local law enforcement patrolled all of the evacuation areas to protect against looters.
On Saturday night, the River fire’s flames crested ridges behind Lakeport and appeared to be approaching the city, as shown in the video below.
However, at that point Supervisor Rob Brown, who was driving the fire area with Sheriff Brian Martin, said the fire still appeared to be several miles and ridges away.
Brown and other local officials will host a community meeting about the fires at 5 p.m. Sunday at Kelseyville High School.
Firefighters worked the incident through the night, with structure protection in areas like Bachelor Valley a priority, according to radio reports.
Reports from the scene Saturday night stated that power was cut to the Bachelor Valley area as part of the firefighting effort.
Cal Fire anticipates that the Mendocino Complex will be fully contained on Aug. 5.
In other fire news, Gov. Brown announced on Saturday that the state has secured a presidential declaration requested on Friday providing direct federal assistance to further support the communities impacted by the Carr Fire, following an emergency proclamation issued for Shasta County this week.
The Carr fire in Redding ballooned to 89,194 acres by Sunday morning, with 5 percent containment, according to Cal Fire.
The incident has claimed the lives of two firefighters and three civilians, according to Redding area media reports.
Cal Fire said the Carr fire has destroyed 517 structures and damaged 135 others, and continues to threaten nearly 5,000 more.
Gov. Brown ordered state flags to be flown at half-staff in honor of two firefighters who died while working on the Carr Fire, and issued emergency proclamations for Riverside and Mariposa counties this week due to fires.
A summary of Mendocino Complex evacuations, road closures and shelter information is listed below. Updates will be issued throughout the day as information changes.
