wildfire destruction An American flag hangs from a tree in front of residences burned by wildfires in Santa Rosa, California, on Thursday, Oct. 12, 2017. Wildfires that tore through northern California's iconic wine-growing regions prompted evacuations of more than 20,000 people, killed 11 and damaged some of the most valuable vineyards and wineries in the U.S. About 1,500 commercial, residential and industrial structures were burned, and damage assessment teams have started accounting for the destruction.
