October 9, 2017, a wind driven firestorm enveloped dozens of communities in Sonoma and Napa counties, California. Scores of homes were destroyed, and as of October 10, the fires are still largely uncontained, threatening thousands more. As firefighters risk their lives working to protect civilians, many have learned that their homes were consumed as well.
