I think it is natural to wonder, "How would my house fare in a California wildfire?" I have a brick bungalow with a slate roof. From what I read, probably not well.
Right ... Your wood roof trusses probably don't have proper heat insulation between the tile & wood; lack of heat/fire shields at windows; emergency generator & water pump; wooded area/brush too close to the house; and ect ...

But important too ... do you have a safe place (storm shelter; aka: fire storm) to escape to if you stayed to protect the house (I mean bananas) as many home (banana) owners would do if a fire storm over takes you????
