The northern fire isn't a threat.

One reason is it's two far away. There's another reason.

Click on the tab on the right side of the map in order to open up more choices. The heading will be "Map Layers". In that list, and about a third of the way down, click on "Fire History". You will see many more areas highlighted a darker color. Those are locations of fires in recent years and you can't help but notice that those previously burned areas have a high resistance to new fires. That's because all of the dead vegetative garbage that collects on forest floors over many years was all burned away during those previous fire.

That's why having regular controlled burns to eliminate the buildup of old dead stuff and useless bushes is such a good idea. But California has not been doing that very much if at all in most areas that would benefit from it.
