>> IT WAS A LIFE CHANGING MOMENT. LIKE MY HOME. JUST LIKE, FELL APART AND LIKE AN HOUR. >> ESPERANZA HAGY IS THANKFUL HER FAMILY IS SAFE AFTER THE BOYLES FIRE ROARED THROUGH THEIR CLEAR LAKE NEIGHBORHOOD SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THE FAMILY WAS HEADING HOME FROM CHURCH WHEN THEY SPOTTED THE FLAMES SHOOTING HUNDREDS OF FEET IN THE AIR. >> BUT LIKE, THE FIRE WAS TOO CLOSE. SO I WAS. I WAS LIKE PANICKING. >> 4000 RESIDENTS TOLD TO LEAVE THEIR HOMES AS THE FIRE GREW LARGER, TOO DANGEROUS FOR THE GAZE TO RETURN HOME. HOURS LATER, THEY LEARNED THEIR HOME WAS GONE. >> FOR THE PAST 25 YEARS, MY PARENTS HAVE LIVED THERE AND JUST LOST EVERYTHING. THEY JUST HAVE THE CLOTHES THAT THEY LEFT WITH. BUT YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING ELSE IS GONE. >> THE FAMILY SHARING THIS PHOTO OF THEIR HOME BEFORE THE FIRE. FIREFIGHTERS SAY 30 HOMES WERE LOST HERE ABOUT 40 TO 60 VEHICLES DESTROYED. >> LOSS OF PROPERTY IS SUBSTANTIAL, ESPECIALLY FOR A 76 ACRE FIRE. >> THE FIRE STARTED SEVERAL HUNDRED FEET IN THAT DIRECTION. AND THEN RACED UP THIS HILLSIDE, CARRIED BY STRONG WINDS AND INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. >> AND WHEN I WAS AROUND FAST, WE TRY TO STAY TO FIGHT IT WITH HOSES AND STUFF, BUT IT WAS TOO MUCH. >> SO WE HAD TO LEAVE AND GET OUT OF THERE AND THEN COME TO FIND OUT, WE COME BACK. IT'S JUST ALL BURNT TO THE GROUND. SO SAD. >> BUILDING INSPECTORS ARE GOING DOOR TO DOOR ASSESSING DAMAGE AND REDTAGGED HOMES. >> IT'S PRETTY DRAMATIC IN A SMALL AREA. IT'S KIND OF HEARTBREAKING BECAUSE SOME OF THESE FOLKS ARE LIMITED INCOME AND ELDERLY, AND IT'S GOING TO BE TOUGH AGAIN. >> INVESTIGATORS ARE NOW LOOKING FOR A CAUSE TO THE FIRE, BUT SAY THE DANGER IS NOT OVER. >> THERE'S GOING TO BE A LOW RH IN THE AFTERNOON AND WINDS, WHICH HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR AREAS THAT AREN'T 100% MOPPED UP TO FLARE UP. WE COINED THAT TIME THE WITCHING HOUR. >> WE'RE JUST FIGURING OUT INSURANCE NOW. >> THE GUYS ARE TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD, BUT REMEMBERING THE HOME THEY LOVED. >> I GREW UP IN THAT HOME. YEAH, I DON'T REMEMBER. I DON'T KNOW
