Western wildfires calm down in cool weather, but losses grow

The Dixie Fire continues to burn as one of the largest fires in California history, destroying remote areas in its path. INDIAN FALLS, Calif. (AP) — Cooler weather on Tuesday helped calm two gigantic wildfires in the U.S. West, but a tally of property losses mounted as authorities got better access to a tiny California community savaged by flames last weekend and to a remote area of southern Oregon where the nation s largest blaze is burning. Scientists say evidence shows Oregon s Bootleg Fire generated its own fire tornado this month, with winds higher than 111 mph (179 kph). The rare phenomenon is associated with extreme fire behavior spawned by dry, hot conditions, experts said.
