Meanwhile, after dealing with red flag weather Monday, firefighters will get a break Tuesday as the winds are forecast to be calm in the area of the North Complex fires.

"Despite red flag conditions, favorable winds allowed for a small firing operation earlier (Monday) at Four Trees to ensure the fire’s edge was kept in check, guiding it up to Oroville-Quincy Highway," Cal Fire said in its latest incident report. "One 40-acre spot fire was caught on the north side of the highway by Frog Rock, but firefighters are confident they will contain it (Monday) tonight."

National forest closures extended to Sept. 21

The U.S. Forest Service has extended the closure of all national forest lands in California through Sept. 21.

Due to the unprecedented number of fires and the limited resources to fight them, the Forest Service had temporarily closed all national forests in the state until Sept. 14 before extending the order Monday.

Businesses with valid Forest Service permits, including those on Lake Shasta, are exempt from the order.
