Officials say the Park Fire in Northern California has burned more than 380,000 acres, making the growing wildfire the 5th largest in California history.

The fire is burning across four different counties: Butte, Plumas, Shasta, and Tehama — forcing evacuation orders for more than 4,000 people.

Close to 5,600 firefighters are working to get the fire under control. It has already destroyed more than 190 structures and is less than 20% contained.

    Why don't they go cloud seed and engineer a downpour over there, you know..help people with their geoengineering weather modification program? Put it to good use instead of using it for destruction

    As someone who has been through three house fires. Just know my heart goes out to those suffering right now. Things are hard but you will get through this as survivors.
  • This is an arson caused fire not a natural fire. This area has no fire history. meaning there is a lot of material for burning. Thanks to all the fire fighters. WE appreciate your hard and dangerous work.
