So long as U don't have wood shingles for a roof your pretty safe. I have been through Earthquakes, Fires and Floods in So CA. Having lived in the Foothills for 48 years.

I went through one fire that came with 3 blocks of the house, later that summer it was lucky we had the smaller fire of only 1000 acres cause all of the San Gaberials went up and that winter I faced a wall of water one mornining after having 29 inchs of rain in one month on burned ground. That and having been through countless other fires and rollers in S CA.

So there really is nothing to panic or get upset about. Put some water on the roof and wet down the plants.

It generally takes about 40 years of Brush growth between big burns in the same area.
