1 week agoPickett Fire: Fire crews increase containment to 17%
The marine layer extended Monday night into the Pickett Fire's footprint, while temperatures decreased to the 60s on the western side of the fire and to the lower 70s in the east, according to a Cal Fire status update. These cooler and moist conditions allowed the more than 2,700 fire personnel to prevent the flames from expanding and make headway, increasing containment by about 4% over 24 hours.
