A Napa Valley couple whose neighbors died trying to escape a deadly wildfire has helped create a fireproof backyard bunker capable of withstanding temperatures up to 2,000 degrees. The shelter, dubbed “Fort,” was inspired by the horrifying night the Atlas Fire tore through Napa County in October 2017, leaving a trail of destruction that burned more than 51,000 acres, destroyed 783 structures and claimed six lives. Linda Cantey, an aerospace engineer and consultant, said she and her husband were asleep when the blaze swept their neighborhood.
