The Ranch Fire, which began on March 8 in San Bernardino County, CA, has burned approximately 60 acres and has been fully contained by Monday evening. Full containment means firefighters have established a perimeter to stop the fire from spreading, although it may still burn within the area. The containment percentage reflects the effectiveness of responses to wildfires; however, it doesn't mean the fire is completely extinguished. Efforts to determine the cause of the fire are ongoing, while firefighting strategies focus on both containment and control.
Full containment of a wildfire indicates that firefighters have established a line around the perimeter, preventing its spread, although the fire may still burn within.
Fire containment, expressed as a percentage, reflects how much of the fire's perimeter is secured by control lines, which is crucial for managing wildfire safety.
