WILDFIRES RAGE ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA IN HISTORIC EVACUATION
The California wildfire crisis grows with hundreds of thousands evacuated from 68,000 more homes threatened as winds exceed 100 mph. Gov. Schwarzenegger says dry, hot weather and fierce winds create a perfect fire storm while crews focus on protecting structures amid massive evacuations in San Diego County and beyond. Thomas Warshock of Tecate is dead after defying evacuation orders as fires scorch Rancho Santa Fe Lake Arrowhead and Running Springs. President Bush declares a federal emergency for seven counties to speed relief.
