The addition of the new “moderate” and “high” zones led to the total acreage in the fire severity hazard zones increasing by 24%.

Though the item did not name the two monuments, the acreage figure roughly fits the two new ones in California.

So far, inland Northern California and Central California saw roughly fivefold increases in acreage in these zones for local responsibility areas.

The evening before, I’d reported the burned acreage aloud to my partner as LAist updated its website: “400 acres, zero containment.”

And it’s not super surprising that he holds a grudge; being a paranormal confined to the same acreage for more than 200 years gives you a lot of time to ruminate.
