Thousands on Front Lines as Fire Siege Enters 3rd Week

An ever-growing wave of  lightning-sparked wildland fires continues to consume structures and acreage from Kern County to the Oregon Border. As of June 30 (AM), nearly 1,500 separate lightning fires were burning in Northern California, consuming upwards of 400,000 acres and leaving much of the North State in a smoky haze. Thousands of people have been evacuated from their homes, and nearly 20,000 firefighters are on the front lines battling the blazes.
