The last fire came within five miles of Cupertino and people I know that live near to 280/Rancho San Antonio got evacuation warnings before the wind turned.

It's only a matter of time before Los Gatos, Saratoga, Almaden, etc suffer major fire damage. CalFire defensible space recommendations are largely ignored.
Also: Woodside, Mill Valley, Ross, Kentfield.

Mt. Tamalpais had major burns every decade or so from the 1860s through about 1930. It's had none since.
