I would be interested in your observations as I'm planning fall/winter projects to push out the boundaries of our fire protection zone. We are also revising our fire evacuation planning (even though it is highly unlikely we would leave). We are breaking the planning into 10, 30 and 60 minute segments, based on a guess as to how much time before the fires arrives at our house. We have always considered a fire coming from the West to be the most likely so up to now that has been our focus. The two fires this year that could impact our place were to the SE and N, so I'm looking at things more broadly.
