The death toll holds rising, the number of missing remains large and the fires are still raging largely uncontained in California. Twenty-three people have died in the wildfires that have ravaged Northern California’s wine country the coming week. But at least 285 people are still missing, and the climate isn’t cooperating at all. High gales and low humidity, coupled with dry conditions, are making it tough for firefighters to get a handle on the blaze. And no rainfall is in the forecast either. More than 170,000 acres have been scorched and 3,500 structures burned in California by 22 fires.
