Weather conditions remain a challenge, with gusty south winds (15–25 mph) and low humidity expected to persist into the evening. Conditions are forecast to improve overnight, but winds are expected to increase again Sunday afternoon.

    Evacuation Orders remain in effect south of Highway 138 between Interstate 15 and Highway 173.

  16. My #Chico boss took this photo of the #LakeFire this afternoon. He is planning on leaving tonight. 😳

  17. Random wildfire note: lots of out of state resources on the #ApacheFire in Ventura County last night, and I figured out why: these are units that were nearby who had just been released from the #LakeFire in Santa Barbara County. Lots of out-of-state firefighters are working on that fire given its large size.

    The fire continues to be more active in the Davey Brown area, Ranger Peak and Goat Rock areas.

    The fire is moving as planned to the established control lines,
    with crews focusing on any spot fires escaping those lines.
    Ground crews continue to work with various aircraft as needed to assist with suppression tactics.

    South Zone Fire Activity:
    Firefighters continue to make good progress mopping up hot spots and strengthening control lines on the Lake Fire.
    Firefighters have conducted firing operations to create a buffer zone in areas of the fire,
    and they continue to strengthen control lines, identifying and extinguishing any remaining hot spots within the fire perimeter.
    Today, crews continue to actively fight fire while working on strengthening containment and control lines.

    Forecast for Saturday:
    A 10-20% chance of mainly dry thunderstorms through the day capable of producing lightning strikes along with gusty outflow winds.
    Otherwise partly cloudy skies and slightly cooler with highs in the upper 80s to upper 90s.

  22. California wildfires have burned five times the average this year, officials say

    California’s wildfire season is off to a ferocious start,
    with the state’s top wildfire official saying that fires have already burned through five times the average amount of land for this time of year.

    Speaking at a news conference on Wednesday, Joe Tyler, the director of the California department of forestry and fire protection (Cal Fire), said the state has responded to more than 3,500 wildfires so far this year.

    Together, those fires have scorched nearly 220,000 acres
    – more than fives times above what is typical for mid-July, which is considered fairly early in the state’s wildfire season.

    “We are not just in a fire season, we are in a fire year,” Tyler said at the news conference.
    “Our winds and the recent heatwave have exacerbated the issue, consuming thousands of acres.
    So we need to be extra cautious.”

    Authorities across the US west have warned of the rising risk of wildfires amid a protracted heatwave that has dried out the landscape and smashed temperatures records from California to Oregon to Nevada.

    “Climate change is real,” said California’s governor, Gavin Newsom, on Wednesday. “
    Those extremes are here present every day in the great state of California.”

    An abundantly wet winter has left landscapes across California coated in grasses that quickly dried as the weather warmed,
    creating abundant fuel for fast-burning brush fires.

    California crews are now working in scorching temperatures to battle numerous wildfires on Thursday,
    including a stubborn 34,000-acre blaze known as the #LakeFire, which prompted evacuation orders for about 200 homes in the mountains of Santa Barbara county, north-west of Los Angeles.

    In Oregon on Thursday, crews were battling the #LarchCreekFire, which has grown to more than 11,000 acres since Tuesday.
    Lower temperatures and calming winds were helping the crews’ efforts, but the local fire danger level remained extreme. One firefighter was treated for heat-related injuries.

    In Hawaii, Haleakala national park on Maui was closed as firefighters battled a blaze on the slopes of a mountain. Visitors in more than 150 vehicles that had gone up on Wednesday for the famous sunset views were not able to descend until about 4am on Thursday because the narrow roads were blocked by fire crews
