LOWER LAKE, California, Dhu-AlQa’dah 12, 1437, August 15, 2016, SPA -- A quick-moving Northern California wildfire has destroyed more than 100 homes and forced thousands to flee an area where drought conditions and high temperatures are making firefighting difficult, authorities said Monday. California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection spokesperson Daniel Berlant said that the fire in Lower Lake, roughly 145 kilometers north of San Francisco, has scorched almost 13 square kilometers. No injuries have been reported. Thousands of structures are threatened after the blaze burned the post office, a winery, a Habitat for Humanity office, and several businesses. Lower Lake still is recovering from a devastating wildfire nearly a year ago. --SPA 19:28 LOCAL TIME 16:28 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
