Seems that there is more than one fire going in California ... something like 25 fires. Here's the worst one in Northern California:

This one has 23 deaths mostly from people trying to escape found in their cars.

The Camp Fire in Butte County, about 100 miles north of Sacramento, grew slightly overnight to a total of 109,000 acres, after destroying an estimated 6,500 homes and 260 businesses in the city of Paradise. At least five victims of the fire were found trapped in charred vehicles as they attempted to flee the fast-moving blaze, authorities said.

Already ranked as the most destructive wildfire in California history, the Camp Fire could surpass the deadliest on record of 29 fatalities in a 1933 inferno because law-enforcement officials say as many as 100 people remain missing from the Paradise area. Officials of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, or Cal Fire, said teams have been deployed to search for the missing, some of whom they said could be alive but trapped in rubble.
