Wildfires rage in California

Cooler weather helped firefighters gain ground on hundreds of wildfires that charred bone-dry terrain across the heart of wine country and remote forests in Northern California.

One fire had spread across nearly 15.5 square kilometersin Napa County and quickly moved into a mostly rural area of Solano County. The fire threatened more than 100 buildings as it fed on grassy woodland about 64 km southwest of Sacramento, said Roger Archey, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
