The fire is about 85 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge.\nUPDATE: Oct. 29, 6:37 p.m.: Fire grows slightly to 76,138 acres\nThe Kincade Fire grew slightly over the course of Tuesday, adding just 723 acres, bringing total acreage to 76,138 acres. Containment remains at 15 percent, Cal Fire officials said at a 6:30 p.m. press conference.\n\"The fire has made it to the edge of the Tubbs Burn scar, which is about two years old,\" Assistant Chief Jonathan Cox of Cal Fire said, making note of the boundary of 2017's deadly tragedy.\nOfficials remain concerned with the northeast end of the fire as it threatens to spread into Lake and Napa counties.\nSteve Volmer, a fire behavior analyst with Cal Fire, emphasized the extreme fire conditions, saying the vegetation is extremely dry and relative humidity is expected to drop to 6 percent overnight.\n\"With the northeast winds we still are currently feeling up there in the mountains, everybody is still anticipating those high rates of spread and erratic fire behavior,\" Volmer said. \"We’re also seeing that push some of those fire embers back into the burn. It’s advantageous in some ways, but very destructive in others. The crews are very actively engaged up there. They’re looking for those spot fires.\"\nFirefighters were contending with high winds Tuesday night, and a Red Flag Warning went into effect for the North Bay at 8 a.m.\n\"Right now, we are still seeing wind gusts up to 50 miles per hour up near Mount St. Helena, those are impacting the fire as we've heard,\" said Ryan Walbrun, a forecaster with the National Weather Service. \"Right in the center of the fire, they were still gusting about 35 miles an hour and the humidity values are observed at around 6 percent right now, so we're all feeling good, but the conditions remain very dry and windy out there. We do think as we get towards midnight tonight that the winds will start to die down and when we wake up tomorrow morning, we'll notice that the winds are much lighter.\"\nWalbrun said weather conditions are expected to be more favorable after Wednesday and into the weekend. \"But unfortunately still no rain in the forecast,\" he added.\nSonoma County Sheriff Mark Essick said another evacuation area was switched from \"mandatory evacuation\" to \"advisory evacuation,\" meaning residents can return at their own risk. Zone 4A includes the area north of the intersection of Westside Road at Mill Creek Road and west of Highway 101, including northern Dry Creek Valley. For the latest evacuation information, visit the SoCo Emergency website.\nOver the course of the fire, helicopters have dropped over 2.1 million gallons of water, and tankers have let loose over 1 million gallons of retardant, Cox said.\nCapt. Aristotle Wolfe of the California Highway Patrol said people have mostly been cooperative and orderly, but officers have made 10 DUI arrests since the start of the fire. “We just don’t need that right now,\" Wolfe said.\nMore updates coming\nWatch the news conference, below:\nUPDATE: Oct. 29, 11:05 a.m.: Cal Fire gives operational update\nIn a second live update from Cal Fire today, firefighters gave operational details on how the agency is dealing with the Kincade Fire Tuesday.\n\"Currently we have 4 air tankers and six helicopters actively engaged in fire suppression on the fire,\" said Jeff Ohs, a Cal Fire section chief.\nOhs said Cal Fire has been focusing on the northeast side of the fire, and it is threatening Lake and Napa counties, noting crews paying particular attention to the radio communications on Mount St. Helena.\nTransmitters on the summit there broadcast both commercial radio, carrying news to the public, as well as public safety transmissions critical to firefighting.\nFirefighters are also working to curtail smoke in the southern area of the fire, in areas already burned, as it is preventing reentry to those areas.\nUPDATE: Oct. 29, 10 a.m.: Kincade Fire grows 1,000 acres, crews prepare for Tuesday wind event\nCal Fire officials said Tuesday morning the Kincade Fire gained 1,000 acres overnight. The fire is now roughly 118 square miles, more than twice the size of the city of San Francisco.\nWhile firefighters were able to limit spread overnight, the containment remains at 15%. The majority of the fire's spread was on the eastern side.\n\"With that onshore flow we had yesterday, with the wind pushing from west to east, it was essentially pushing towards Lake County,\" Cal Fire Division Cheif Jonathan Cox said at the press conference. \"There was a spot fire towards that direction on the eastern flank that was active yesterday and grew overnight.\"\nTonight, firefighters will focus on preventing the fire from infiltrating Lake County and stopping it from jumping over Highway 101.\n“101 is one of our priorities to hold and that entire area on the 101 corridor,” Cox said.\nDue to the fire activity in the east, residents in Lake County were issued an evacuation warning Monday night. Hours earlier, the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office announced that some communities in the western part of the county were downgraded from a \"mandatory evacuation\" to an \"evacuation warning,\" meaning people can return home at their own risk.\nSonoma County Sheriff Mark Essick said at the press conference that he knows many who remain in mandatory evacuation zones are wondering when they can go home. \"Today is probably going to be a day that we pause to talk about repopulation,\" said\nEssick. “We have to see how the fire behaves before we can talk more about repopulation.”\nFind evacuation information for Sonoma County here, for Napa County here and for Lake County here.\nFirefighters are preparing for a wind event Tuesday night into Wednesday, and a Red Flag Warning went into effect for the North Bay at 8 a.m.\n\"We are starting to see the northeast winds pick up right now along the eastern flank of the fire up near Mount St. Helena,\" said Ryan Walbrun, a forecaster with the National Weather Service. \"We are starting to get reports of 30 to 40 mph winds up there. Eventhough the winds aren't down at the lower elevations the forecast is on track. What that means is a challenging afternoon and evening of strong, dry offshore winds that will impact the fire area. We're in this critical 24-hour window.\"\nThe winds are forecast to pick up gradually through the day with 30 mph winds possible by mid-day. At the peak of the event this evening, sustained winds of 25 to 35 mph will develop with isolated gusts up to 65 mph. Winds will subside Wednesday and the Red Flag Warning ends at 4 p.m.\nWalbrun added that after this wind event, conditions look favorable for the next five to seven days. But there is no rain in the forecast for the next 10 to 14 days.\nCal Fire Battalion Chief Mike Blankenheim said the combination of the weather and the dry landscape make the fire conditions dire. \"We are at the time year where we haven't seen any moisture in our fuel beds for an extended period of time,\" Blankenheim said. \"The fuels are critically dry, they are receptive to new fire as well as fire spread. As we see, the challenges with the weather, we have influences of heavy fire spread issues being at a rate of erratic and dangerous.\"\nCaptain Aristotle Wolfe of the California Highway Patrol asked residents to be vigilant about preventing fires, saying while driving to the news conference, he pulled over a driver for throwing a cigarette from their window in Petaluma. He said officials are trying to keep Highway 101 open to traffic, though on- and off-ramps are closed in evacuation areas.\nAmy Graff is a digital editor for SFGATE.
