Containment on the more than 219,000-acre Caldor Fire, burning near Lake Tahoe, grew slightly to 67%. President Biden surveyed damage caused by the fire and approved a disaster declaration for California.
Meantime, all Red Cross shelters set up for residents affected by the Caldor Fire have now closed. Sites at the Reno Livestock Events Center and the Reno-Sparks Convention Center are no longer in operation, but the shelters aided hundreds who had to flee their homes under evacuation orders.
