(AP) — Erratic winds Wednesday fanned a wildfire burning through rugged hills in Northern California that has driven people from their homes and pushed the flames across two counties. The fire had expanded across 32 square miles and crews had the flames just 16 percent contained, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said. In Southern California, evacuation orders were lifted as crews continued to surround a small wildfire sparked by a burning motor home in rural Riverside County. The blaze about halfway between Temecula and Palm Desert had been held to 450 acres and was 70 percent contained, with full containment expected Friday, state fire officials said.
