More than five-hundred acres of land in California has now been destroyed. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger estimated that dozens of houses have been destroyed because of wild fires. Thousands have been evacuated so far. Santa Barbara County Capt. David Sadecki predicted that the "sundowner" winds were going to happen in that particular California area. Sadecki says it's too dangerous to do containment lines. They're doing some structure protection, but in this case, California fire fighters can be safe one minute and in danger the next minute. Ten fire fighters have been injured so far. This includes three Ventura County fire fighters whose fire truck was overtaken by fire as they tried to protect a structure. If things keep going like this, the whole state of California could be decimated and burned down.
