On Monday morning, Rea, 25, drove for three hours to get his first glimpse of home in nearly a week - only to be stopped by a California Highway Patrol officer who told him the roads were still closed. For residents whose homes were burned, or who live in burned areas, it will be “days or weeks before you can get back in.”Īnd even for evacuees who’ve been told they can go home, the journey has been complicated by road closures and cleanup efforts.ĭillon Rea, a Calistoga resident, fled the wildfires last week assuming that his home would burn like so many others did.īut on Sunday, his father texted him pictures showing that the fire had only charred parts of their lawn and left their house intact. “Today, the theme word is ‘patience,’” Sonoma County sheriff Rob Giordano said at a news conference. Authorities warned that cleanup efforts in the hardest-hit areas might delay homecomings for other evacuees. About 2,900 firefighters were working on the Atlas fire in Napa County.Ībout 40,000 people remained under evacuation orders as of Monday morning, but many of those had been lifted by the end of the day. Nearly 4,500 firefighters were still battling the Tubbs, Pocket, Nuns and Oakmont fires Monday, Cal Fire spokesman Scott McLean said. Peterson predicts that temperatures - which were unseasonably high when the blazes broke out last week - will cool nearly 20 degrees over the course of the week. Forecasters estimate a 65% to 70% chance of rain on Thursday night, said Drew Peterson, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Monterey. The blaze is burning in a sparsely populated area, but if the fire moves west, it could threaten more than 2,000 homes west of Los Alamos Road, said Santa Rosa Fire Chief Tony Gossner.įirefighters could get even more help from the weather. The Oakmont fire, an 875-acre blaze that broke out last Saturday near the Oakmont neighborhood of Santa Rosa, is 15% contained. The Atlas fire was 51,064 acres and 68% contained. The Nuns fire grew to 48,627 and was 50% contained. The Pocket fire spread to 11,889 acres and was 40% contained. The Tubbs fire has spread to 36,390 acres and was 70% contained. The Cascade fire in Yuba County and the La Porte fire in Butte County were both 95% contained. The Redwood fire was 50% contained at 35,800 acres as of Monday morning. On Monday, cooler, wetter winds blew in from the ocean and helped firefighters take control of the blazes. The 17 people reported missing in Mendocino County have all been located, but at least 17 people are still missing in Napa County. In Sonoma County, authorities located 1,743 of the 1,863 people reported missing during the fires, but at least 88 people reported missing are still unaccounted for.

The Nuns fire claimed its first victim Monday morning when a contract driver delivering water to firefighters overturned his vehicle and died, according to Cal Fire and California Highway Patrol officials. “This has been the deadliest week that we’ve experienced here in California … from wildfires,” Cal Fire spokesman Daniel Berlant said. The Redwood fire, responsible for eight deaths, ranks 10th on the list. At this point I might say that if you are a particular fan of Nina and/or Tekken to add 1 point to that final score, but in all honesty this time I don't see how even that would make this game more enjoyable.The Tubbs fire now ranks third on the state’s list of deadliest fires, claiming at least 22 lives. I am sure they are banking on a lot of sales to Nina fanboys, but anyone else will find there are many similar games to this one that are much more worthy and fun. All I can say is for fans of Nina/Tekken to consider playing something more worthy of your time, or at the very least to rent this game first before buying.Īt least Namco are trying new things, even if they didn't manage to convince with this distinctly average effort. Though in saying that, if as in this case the character/series is popular enough, then such flaws will be overlooked. Unfortunately though it just doesn't become anything greater than the sum of its parts, and because the majority of those parts have not been developed long or well enough, the game just isn't fun enough to warrant much attention. It certainly isn't as bad as it could have been indeed some parts are quite decent.
