If it was me personally, I'd be looking at how many exit routes I have and what the wind was doing. If I had numerous ways to leave my street and area, then I would feel fairly confident in staying put, listening to the radio, but being ready to go if need be. If the winds were high, then I'd probably be a bit more anxious. Fire might travel faster, trees might fall and block routes. But if it was one way in or out, then I'd treat it as a code red day and leave early.
