More than 72 percent of California's wildfires are contained, but responders still have tens of thousands of acres to neutralize as of Saturday, November 2.
One of the most recent fires, Maria, took responders by surprise when it sprung up on Halloween. It's only 30 percent contained so far and has burned more than 9,000 acres near Bradley Road and Solano Verde Drive, according to Cal Fire.provided by the Ventura County Fire Department. Located primarily on Ventura County's South Mountain, the weather continued to push the fire toward the west and downslope on Friday.
A power line may have sparked the Maria Fire. Utility provider Southern California Edison said that it had re-energized a power line near the outbreak a mere 13 minutes before the blaze broke out, according to the Associated Press.
