A rapidly spreading wildfire in southern California's Cajon Pass has grown in hot, dry weather, threatening at least 34,000 structures and forcing the hasty evacuation of more than 80,000 people.。
Since first reported on Tuesday around 10:30 a.m. PDT, the Blue Cut fire has already engulfed 30,000 acres as of Wednesday morning, and it was expected to continue to spread. 。
This out-of-control blaze follows a series of other devastating wildfires in California -- most recently one in Lake County, Northern California -- as a result of extremely low humidity, high temperatures and strong winds. 。

“We are not even in the hot part of fire season yet." 。
California is suffering through its worst drought on record, which has dried out soils and vegetation and led to widespread tree deaths, which may make trees more susceptible to fire.。
Red flag fire weather conditions are forecast to continue through 9 p.m. PDT Thursday, which means conditions will remain conducive to additional spreading of this blaze. 。

"This moved so fast," said Darren Dalton, 51, who evacuated from his home in Wrightwood. "It went from 'have you heard there's a fire?' to 'mandatory evacuation' before you could take it all in."。

“You add the wind, the fuel and the lay of the land and they all line up for a disaster,” Wakoski said. “The brush is like stick. They just break off when you walk through them. It’s a disaster that has been waiting to happen all year, waiting for a spark.”Additional reporting by the Associated Press。相关文章
