| 2019-10-27 |
[FOXNEWS] Authorities have ordered at least 50,000 people in Northern Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, to evacuate on Saturday as a potentially "catastrophic" wind event could amplify the wildfires that have scorched the area.
The entire towns of Healdsburg and Windsor are set to evacuate ahead of strong winds that may lead to erratic fire behavior.
The Sonoma County Sheriff's Office expects to be the biggest evacuation in the county in over 25 years with Sheriff Mark Essick saying its the largest evacuation order he's experienced in his 26-year career. |
