Three large wildfires are burning across Southern California, affecting vast areas and leading to evacuations. Fueled by dry conditions and high winds, the fires are threatening homes and other structures in multiple counties, displacing thousands of residents. Together, the Bridge Fire, Line Fire and Airport Fire have scorched tens of thousands of acres, and continue to challenge firefighting efforts.
