Officials say drought, heat, and low humidity signal a protracted fire season after more than 1,500 fires this year. Crews fought 39 square miles of destruction in San Diego County and remained vigilant for hotspots and new blazes on Saturday.

Judge orders return of 38-pound cat Rocky to New Jersey owner
In Stafford New Jersey a municipal court ruled for Ginny Fine to regain custody of Rocky a 38 pound cat with a mixed heritage after mitochondrial DNA showed the mother was 98 percent bobcat but the father’s lineage could not be determined. The judge said Rocky goes home. The cat was kept at the Popcorn Park Zoo in Lacey and must remain in a state inspected enclosure. Fine faced a 1000 fine for letting the animal loose.
