"Northern California Wildfire Still Growing" [1]

"POLLOCK PINES, Calif. — An expanding wildfire in Northern California has reached 82,018 acres, or more than 128 square miles, as of Sunday morning, California fire officials said.

The fire, which began Sept. 13, about 60 miles east of Sacramento, Calif., is 10% contained.

Overnight, the fire grew by just 74 acres, the slowest growth of the week. Fire officials reported that increased humidity Saturday night helped to moderate the fire's activity."
