San Francisco, January 24 (RHC)-- In Northern California, firefighters have contained about one-third of a 1,000-acre wildfire near the coastal communities of Monterey and Big Sur. 

Hundreds of residents were evacuated over the weekend.  The blaze is the first 100-acre-plus wildfire in the area to burn in the month of January in over a decade, as the climate crisis and a two-decade drought have led to extended wildfire seasons.
