Fire crews in California’s wine country are intensifying efforts to contain the fast-moving Pickett Fire, which has already forced nearly 200 residents to evacuate.

New videos released Saturday show bulldozers being deployed across Napa County, carving out fire lines to halt the blaze’s advance. These heavy machines are proving critical in slowing the wildfire, which continues to threaten homes, vineyards, and local infrastructure.

As of Saturday evening, officials confirmed the fire is 11% contained, though hot weather and dry winds remain a major challenge. So far, at least 190 people have received evacuation orders, with shelters and emergency services mobilized to assist displaced families.

The fire’s impact is already being felt across the region, raising concerns about long-term damage to Napa’s vineyards and wine industry. Firefighters say their top priority remains protecting lives and preventing further spread.

Residents are urged to stay alert to evacuation notices as crews continue their grueling battle against the flames.
