The numbers are improving. According to Steve Kull of the state Division of Forestry, on Wednesday, eight fires were active – meaning they could still spread – and 40 others are contained.
“With the resources that we've been able to bring in from other states and supplement our crews and all, we've been able to put enough people out there and equipment that we can get a handle on these very large fires. And then while they're working on those, we still have the ability to react to new fires.”
