Thousands of firefighters are battling a rapidly expanding wildfire in northern California, which more than doubled in size within 24 hours. As of Saturday afternoon, the Park Fire had consumed over 350,000 acres (141,640 hectares) about 90 miles north of Sacramento, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire).

Despite cooler temperatures and more humid air expected in the region, efforts to slow the fire’s spread have been challenging, and the fire remains 0% contained. The blaze has already destroyed 134 structures, authorities reported.

Evacuation orders and warnings have been issued for multiple communities across several counties, including a warning for Paradise. Paradise was devastated by the 2018 Camp Fire, the deadliest in California’s history.

On Thursday, a man was arrested on suspicion of starting the Park Fire by pushing a flaming car into a gully on Wednesday afternoon. The Park Fire is the largest of dozens of wildfires currently burning across the United States, which have collectively scorched over 2 million acres, according to the National Interagency Fire Center.

In Oregon, several fires are also burning, including the Durkee Fire, which has charred more than 288,000 acres in the eastern part of the state. Tragically, a firefighter died after a single-engine tanker crashed near the Falls Fire in southeastern Oregon, the U.S. Forest Service said in a statement on Friday.

As firefighters continue their battle against these devastating blazes, the affected communities remain on high alert, hoping for relief from the relentless flames.
