News about how SCU Lightning Complex Fire is affecting us here in Milpitas, California.

Evacuation Map
Closeup of Evacuation Map as of 8/20 8:30AM

Mandatory evacuation area seems to include Whispering Hills Ranch and other horse ranches in the hills, Silva’s apricot orchard, Kim Parker’s Last Word Ranch, and possibly both adobe houses. GoMilpitas is located at the blob I hastily drew in the corner of Yosemite and Piedmont roads, safe for now, but smoky. Bill Hare, who produces world famous a cappella mixes from his home up at Calaveras and Felter roads, is also being evacuated. On his property is the historic Laguna one-room school, the first in Milpitas. Larger area map here.

Evacuation Resource Center for Santa Clara County Residents Available at Milpitas Library
An evacuation resource center at the Milpitas Library is available for residents of Santa Clara County who have been ordered to leave their homes because of the threat from the SCU Lightning Complex fire, which is growing and remains largely uncontained.

The resource center will be staffed by the American Red Cross and serve to assess the needs of individuals and families impacted by the evacuations and determine appropriate resources. It is not a shelter but serves to assist residents with temporary relocation.

All residents under an evacuation order are urged to take rapid action and leave the area immediately ahead of the fast-moving and unpredictable wildfire.
