California Begins to Grapple With the Aftermath of Devastating Wildfires

While the “October Siege” of wildfires continues in California, the worst of the episode may have passed. The state’s Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) reports that 1,000 firefighters remain on the frontlines of five active wildfires. At its peak, the siege compelled 11,000 firefighters to battle more than 250 fires that ignited across the state in the short span of time since Oct. 8.
