ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「Fast-moving fires have spread across Northern California, with wind-whipped flames forcing people to flee their homes.⁣ ⁣ The fires were caused by an extraordinary number of lightning strikes in recent days — over the last 72 hours, there have been nearly 11,000. The “historic lightning siege” has caused more than 367 new fires, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said.⁣ ⁣ People have been ordered to evacuate neighborhoods in Vacaville, a city of about 100,000 residents near Sacramento, as a combination of uncontrolled fires northwest of the city — known together as the LNU Lightning Complex — has destroyed more than 50 homes and is threatening nearly 2,000 more, the authorities said.⁣ ⁣ It spread more than 14,000 acres overnight and now covers 46,225 acres in Napa, Sonoma and Solano Counties — larger than the size of Washington, D.C. — and is completely uncontained, the authorities said. At least 4 people have been injured in the fire.⁣ ⁣ The fires are spreading smoke across a wide region, with the @nws warning that air quality in the Bay Area could be “very poor for the foreseeable future.”⁣ ⁣ Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency on Tuesday in response to the fires, which have hit the state as it battles the effects of a sweltering heat wave, rolling blackouts and the coronavirus pandemic.⁣ ⁣ Tap the link in our bio for the latest on the fires.
