The Warm Spring wildfire more than 15 square miles large forced the evacuation of an Oregon resort over the weekend and caused road closures.

Firefighters are trying to corral a lightning-caused wildfire in Elko County, Nevada that prompted residents of some 30 homes to flee their homes.

Update - A DC-10 jet fire retardant bomber flew into Idaho as part of an aggressive early attack on the pair of wildfires that have forced evacuations at two campgrounds and a Boy Scout camp in Boise County.

Update - Firefighters worked Saturday to get the upper hand on the mountain wildfire in Southern California that forced the evacuation of thousands and destroyed a number of homes and vehicles. The fire is now 49% contained.
