CAL FIRE: 

Today was hot and dry across the fire area, with continued low humidity allowing the fire to remain very active. Upcoming weather is expecting some elevated humidity into the weekend. They are working in tough terrain, high heat and deep drainages combined with dry and receptive fuels. Firefighters continue to construct lines both direct at the fire line and indirectly to suppress the fire and keep local communities safe. 

All evacuation orders and warnings have been lifted in Butte County, while some orders and warnings remain in Tehama, Shasta and Plumas counties.
