Cal Fire is now putting the number of residences threatened by the blaze at 180, down from 380 earlier today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The latest report on the size and status of the fire: 4,300 acres, with 30 percent containment — the same as early this morning. About 1,100 firefighters are fighting the blaze.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of our Facebook readers has asked what it means that the containment percentage has stayed the same since Wednesday morning as the acreage has continued to grow. Does it means firefighters are at a standstill?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The containment number that Cal Fire uses refers to the rough percentage of a blaze’s circumference that’s bordered with completed firelines (also commonly called control lines or containment lines). An excellent \u003ca href=\"http://projects.scpr.org/firetracker/resources/wildland-firefighting-terms/\">glossary of wildland firefighting terms\u003c/a> from public radio station KPCC in Los Angeles defines a fireline this way:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The manmade portion of a control line, this is a strip of land that has been dug or scraped down to the layers of soil below the surface that have little combustible material and are unlikely to burn. Fireline is built by hand crews to help complete a control line and contain a fire. The larger the flames and the worse the conditions, the wider the fireline will have to be to contain the oncoming wildfire.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>So, let’s say you have a fire with a circumference of 6 miles. If you had achieved 30 percent containment of that fire, you could infer you had 1.8 miles (30 percent of 6 miles) of firelines in place. The fire might still expand along the rest of the circumference, 4.2 miles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, let’s fast-forward a couple of days, and your fire has grown. It has a circumference of 12 miles. You still have 30 percent containment. With 30 percent containment, your firelines have now grown to 3.6 miles, while the uncontained perimeter has grown to 8.4 miles. If things keep on that way, well, you’ll have a big problem on your hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why Cal Fire and other agencies tend to try to throw a lot of resources at rapidly growing fires that occur anywhere close to populated areas — get them contained before they become big problems. The reason fire containment has stayed at 30 percent on the Butts Fire is due to the abundance of extremely dry vegetation, the steep landscape where the blaze is burning, and the hot, occasionally windy weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire says crews have also been detailed to defend the threatened residences in the area, a job that diverts resources away from the job of building containment lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 8:20 a.m. Thursday: \u003c/strong> Cal Fire says the Butts Canyon blaze has burned 4,300 acres as of early this morning and is still 30 percent contained as a massive firefighting force continues to try to get ahead of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency has also updated its damage, now saying the fire has destroyed two residences and seven outbuildings since it broke out just after noon Tuesday. About 380 homes are still threatened and evacuation orders for the nearest rural communities in northeastern Napa County and southern Lake County remain in place. The site of the fire is 30 miles northeast of the city of Napa and a few miles to the northwest of Lake Berryessa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of those forced from their homes have been staying at a Red Cross emergency shelter at the high school in Middletown, with officials reportedly telling them they may not be allowed to go back home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED’s Ted Goldberg talked Thursday morning to Beth Hall, a waitress at the Cowpoke Cafe, just down the street from the evacuation center. She said her new customers over the last few days want more than just food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re asking me questions ’cause they don’t what’s going on,” Hall said. “If I’ve heard anything about the fire, if there’s any news, do they know when they get to go home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire says 1,067 firefighters are working the blaze, along with four fixed-wing air tankers and half a dozen helicopters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 4:45 p.m. Wednesday: \u003c/strong> Cal Fire has just released an update on the status of the Butts Fire, burning on the border of Napa and Lake counties about 30 miles northeast of the town of Napa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency says the fire has now consumed 3,800 acres of grassland and mixed woodland, and is still 30 percent contained. (That’s about 6 square miles, and in San Francisco terms would be equivalent to the area enclosed in a box bounded by lines running from Fisherman’s Wharf to AT&T Park, from AT&T over to Mission Dolores Park, from the park up to the Palace of Fine Arts, then back to the wharf.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evacuation orders for the rural area, near the northern tip of the Pope Valley, remain in place. About 380 structures are reportedly threatened. Residents who have left their homes have been told it could be three days before they’re allowed to return. About 700 firefighters are in action against the blaze, with support from four air tankers and seven helicopters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 8:45 a.m. Wednesday: \u003c/strong> Cal Fire says the Butts Fire, burning in northeastern Napa County, grew to 3,200 acres overnight. Firefighters have it 30 percent contained. It has destroyed five buildings and is threatening hundreds more, forcing some homeowners in the area to evacuate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Overnight the temperatures and the weather aided us in the firefight.

Does it means firefighters are at a standstill?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The containment number that Cal Fire uses refers to the rough percentage of a blaze’s circumference that’s bordered with completed firelines (also commonly called control lines or containment lines). An excellent \u003ca href=\"http://projects.scpr.org/firetracker/resources/wildland-firefighting-terms/\">glossary of wildland firefighting terms\u003c/a> from public radio station KPCC in Los Angeles defines a fireline this way:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The manmade portion of a control line, this is a strip of land that has been dug or scraped down to the layers of soil below the surface that have little combustible material and are unlikely to burn. Fireline is built by hand crews to help complete a control line and contain a fire. The larger the flames and the worse the conditions, the wider the fireline will have to be to contain the oncoming wildfire.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>So, let’s say you have a fire with a circumference of 6 miles. If you had achieved 30 percent containment of that fire, you could infer you had 1.8 miles (30 percent of 6 miles) of firelines in place. The fire might still expand along the rest of the circumference, 4.2 miles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, let’s fast-forward a couple of days, and your fire has grown. It has a circumference of 12 miles. You still have 30 percent containment. With 30 percent containment, your firelines have now grown to 3.6 miles, while the uncontained perimeter has grown to 8.4 miles. If things keep on that way, well, you’ll have a big problem on your hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why Cal Fire and other agencies tend to try to throw a lot of resources at rapidly growing fires that occur anywhere close to populated areas — get them contained before they become big problems. The reason fire containment has stayed at 30 percent on the Butts Fire is due to the abundance of extremely dry vegetation, the steep landscape where the blaze is burning, and the hot, occasionally windy weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire says crews have also been detailed to defend the threatened residences in the area, a job that diverts resources away from the job of building containment lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 8:20 a.m. Thursday: \u003c/strong> Cal Fire says the Butts Canyon blaze has burned 4,300 acres as of early this morning and is still 30 percent contained as a massive firefighting force continues to try to get ahead of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency has also updated its damage, now saying the fire has destroyed two residences and seven outbuildings since it broke out just after noon Tuesday. About 380 homes are still threatened and evacuation orders for the nearest rural communities in northeastern Napa County and southern Lake County remain in place. The site of the fire is 30 miles northeast of the city of Napa and a few miles to the northwest of Lake Berryessa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of those forced from their homes have been staying at a Red Cross emergency shelter at the high school in Middletown, with officials reportedly telling them they may not be allowed to go back home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED’s Ted Goldberg talked Thursday morning to Beth Hall, a waitress at the Cowpoke Cafe, just down the street from the evacuation center. She said her new customers over the last few days want more than just food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re asking me questions ’cause they don’t what’s going on,” Hall said. “If I’ve heard anything about the fire, if there’s any news, do they know when they get to go home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire says 1,067 firefighters are working the blaze, along with four fixed-wing air tankers and half a dozen helicopters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 4:45 p.m. Wednesday: \u003c/strong> Cal Fire has just released an update on the status of the Butts Fire, burning on the border of Napa and Lake counties about 30 miles northeast of the town of Napa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency says the fire has now consumed 3,800 acres of grassland and mixed woodland, and is still 30 percent contained. (That’s about 6 square miles, and in San Francisco terms would be equivalent to the area enclosed in a box bounded by lines running from Fisherman’s Wharf to AT&T Park, from AT&T over to Mission Dolores Park, from the park up to the Palace of Fine Arts, then back to the wharf.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evacuation orders for the rural area, near the northern tip of the Pope Valley, remain in place. About 380 structures are reportedly threatened. Residents who have left their homes have been told it could be three days before they’re allowed to return. About 700 firefighters are in action against the blaze, with support from four air tankers and seven helicopters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 8:45 a.m. Wednesday: \u003c/strong> Cal Fire says the Butts Fire, burning in northeastern Napa County, grew to 3,200 acres overnight. Firefighters have it 30 percent contained. It has destroyed five buildings and is threatening hundreds more, forcing some homeowners in the area to evacuate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Overnight the temperatures and the weather aided us in the firefight.
