Newsom announced new stay-at-home rules on Thursday that will trigger when a region’s intensive care unit capacity falls below 15%. Most of the state will meet that threshold within a day or two, he said. Plus, San Diego County remained under a red flag warning for extreme fire danger Thursday, as gusty Santa Ana winds and low humidity combined to heighten the risk of wildfires. And people who lost homes and businesses in the Valley Fire are still clearing debris off their land, negotiating with insurance companies if they were insured and applying for federal aid. Then, KPBS reporter John Carroll looks at how some of Balboa Park’s institutions are surviving in the era of COVID 19. Finally, a virtual celebration of writers exploring their lives will take place at the San Diego Memoir Showcase this Saturday.
