Powerful winds blew down trees and fences in parts of the Bay Area on Monday night and officials said they were responding to reports of wind-related damage and a fire in Milpitas. In Milpitas, officials evacuated homes in the area of Country Club Drive as firefighters battled a vegetation fire amid gusty winds. Later in the evening, residents were allowed to return but asked to shelter in place. In Santa Rosa, fire department officials said they had multiple incidents, including “tree in the power lines, tree down into a home’s guest cottage, roof blown off of a carport and a fence blown into a tree.” Wind gusts of up to 71 mph were recorded at Mount Diablo in Contra Costa County, according to the National Weather Service. Winds are expected to pick up into the night. A high wind warning remains in effect until 7 a.m. Tuesday in the North Bay, East Bay, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz and Monterey areas. Officials have warned people to stay indoors as winds can blow down trees and powerlines and make driving dangerous.
