Firefighters in Southern California have made significant progress taming a destructive wildfire that ravaged over 130 structures, thanks to cooler temps and calmer winds. The Mountain Fire in Ventura County—now 26% contained—has burned 83 square kilometers of steep terrain, posing lingering risks to infrastructure and communities.
Weather to the Rescue
Mild weather allowed crews to boost containment efforts over the weekend, with evacuation orders downgraded to warnings in some areas. But Cal Fire warns the blaze still 'creeps and smolders' in hard-to-reach zones.
Damage Assessment Underway
Teams are inspecting the site to determine the fire’s cause, while officials tally losses: 134 structures destroyed and dozens damaged. No injuries have been reported.
Local residents are urged to stay alert as firefighters work to secure the perimeter. Stay tuned for updates!
