Sorry to hear that!
I’ve been doing lots of fuel reduction and wildfire prevention work on my Oregon place, but much, much more to do. A few years ago a fire started by branches touching powerlines. It burned to within a few feet of my property, and even after it was “out” it smoldered in the ground for several days.
Curious if similar work has been done in your area/ property?
I rent and think there should be more clearing on the property. One side of the property has a line of eucalyptus trees and I bet those will burn like Roman candles. I am hopeful that the fire doesn’t reach the property since it is more open space/agriculture and not in the dense trees.
