Wildfire in Northern Sacramento Valley, California

A wildfire started on September 27 on Zogg Mine Road and Jenny Bird Lane, North of Igo in Shasta County and would span portions of zone 15 and 63 in Shasta and Tehama counties. The fire would eventually claim 4 lives, cause an injury to a firefighter, destroy 204 structures, damage 27 structures, and burn 56,338 acres.

Another round of critical fire weather conditions occurred from September 26 through September 28 due to a trough sliding into the Rockies and ridge building behind it. Gusty north to east winds winds generally ranged from 25 to 50 mph, however, some of the highest elevations along the Sierra Crest reported gusts up to 76 mph. This led to the Zogg Fire and 11 reports of wind related damage or hazards to a utility company across all of northern California, 10 of which occurred in along the west slopes of the northern Sierra. Damage locations in the events are estimated by the map provided to the public.
