The biggest wildfire season in California history reached a new milestone on Sunday, surpassing 4 million acres burned. The total is now more than double the previous record of 1.8 million acres burned in 2018. At least 31 people have been killed in wildfires this year, and more than 8,200 structures have been destroyed. More than 100 people died in the 2018 season, most of them in the Camp Fire that devastated the town of Paradise, and more than 17,000 homes and 700 businesses were destroyed. The August Complex fire, the largest in state history, was whipped back to life over the weekend by high winds, jumping the containment line. Authorities told people in the towns of Wildwood and Platina to prepare to evacuate.
