Wildfire leads governor to declares emergency
California Gov. Jerry Brown has declared a state of emergency for a Northern California wildfire that remains uncontained by firefighters.
The state of emergency issued Monday allows Lake County to receive more state resources to fight the fire and for recovery afterward.
The fire, which started Saturday, is now nearly 13 square miles (21 square kilometers) and has destroyed 12 buildings.
About 3,000 people have been ordered evacuated.
Lake County is about 120 miles (193 kilometers) north of San Francisco.
