Deadly fires in CA

Fifteen wildfires raged across Northern California, with the biggest ones scorching the state's famous wine country, killing at least 10 people and burning more than 1,500 homes and businesses. And both of those numbers are expected to grow. The fires burned into the night Monday in California's wine country destinations -- Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino counties -- with flames ripping through the lush, picturesque landscape. Wildfires were burning more than 119,032 acres as of Monday night. Authorities have not said what caused the fires but noted dry conditions made it easy for the fires to spread. October is typically the busiest month for wildfires in California. The fires ignited Sunday night and with blazes fueled by strong winds reaching up to 50 mph, firefighters were dealing with extreme rates of spreading and volatile burning conditions.
