The Boone Fire in Fresno County has rapidly grown to about 11,000 acres and is only 5% contained, prompting evacuation orders for several zones.
Firefighters are facing significant challenges due to high winds and steep, rugged terrain, which contribute to extreme fire behavior and active burning in the area.
The San Joaquin Valley is expected to endure high temperatures exceeding 100 degrees for several days, complicating firefighting efforts and potentially worsening the fire.
Despite some residents evacuating, many chose to stay, as the fire is primarily affecting open land with fewer homes in the Los Gatos Creek area.
