Fire crews in California are working diligently to contain the largest wildfire of the year as warming temperatures pose a new challenge. The Park Fire, which started in Butte County before spreading to a neighboring county, has scorched an area larger than Los Angeles. As of now, containment stands at 14%, with evacuation orders being lifted in some communities.
The fire continues to burn through rugged terrain with dense vegetation, threatening to spread to two other counties. Fire officials are bracing for the difficulties that lie ahead in the coming days.
