Summit Fire Taking Out Structures & Acreage

 
The combination timber/brush fire has burned close to 2,000 acres in addition to numerous structures and vehicles as it tracks South towards the town of Corralitos.

Fire area weather calls for sustained wind gusts 15 to 20 mph through the daylight hours.

One news channel mentioned the town of Corralitos is being prepped for evacuation but I have not seen anything official.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to pack up a few items if you live in the path of this one.

This fire has the potential to plant a scar on the area for some time to come. I would not be surprised to see 100 plus structures touched before containment.

Comments:
Mike, Channel 7 shows a blue area on the map that stretches from the fire area through W'ville, Aromas, Prunedale, almost to Salinas. Do you know that means? Chris/Aromas
 
Most likely that was a projection of the downstream smoke.
There is no chance this will hit Aromas or Prunedale.

Once the wind abates this pup will be surrounded.

Best of luck!
