A series of wildfires, notably the Pickett Fire in Napa County, California, has prompted mandatory evacuations as the blaze expands to nearly 7,000 acres. The extreme heat and dry conditions have worsened the situation, leading to multiple evacuation orders in both California and Oregon. Firefighters are facing challenging conditions while trying to contain the rapidly growing Pickett Fire, which is encroaching on local vineyards and threatening air quality in the region. Residents have been advised to stay alert as the situation develops and new evacuation zones are established.
