They're in the green zone right now, so not needing to leave yet, but they have three active fires nearby, basically can't go outside at all because it's so filled with smoke, have no power, and have to be ready to leave.

sounds like the perfect time to start making a fire break around your house.

If they don't have go bags, I would suggest start packing and loading the car instead of waiting until it becomes mandatory and you don't have time. Also take this time to charge everything and also make themselves aware of their shut offs for their gas and water so when it comes time to evacuate, they can turn it off quickly.

All done, but thanks so much for the good tips <3

Damn, that's awful. Do they have a place to stay in the meantime? Hopefully the fire doesn't get to their house.

Same, my wife's parents are here with me rn (Roseburg, OR), but their house is in the red zone in Idleyld Park (just on the other side of Glide, heading up to diamond lake)

Yeah, it's pretty bad, I don't think their house is going to make it, or my sister in laws with her 5 kids.

I get the whole sentimental part of losing a house, but your homeowners insurance pays you if your house is destroyed, right?

Yes and no. It'll cover the house, hopefully, but restocking the house is incredibly expensive and fire insurance is much more of a hassle.

Fun Fact: Most insurers REFUSE to give fire insurance to California homeowners now due to the fires.

of course, if you already have it you are fine, but in many areas you cannot get the insurance.
