Cooler weather is aiding firefighting efforts against a large wildfire, known as the Bridge Fire, in Southern California. The fire, which has consumed nearly 52,000 acres and is currently 3% contained, forced evacuations in nearby communities and triggered highway closures. As humidity levels rise and winds decrease, firefighters are making progress, utilizing both ground crews and aerial support to protect structures and suppress new flare-ups. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, amidst reports of other significant blazes in the region.
