Crews reach 30 percent containment on North Bay Glass Fire

The Glass Fire in Napa, Sonoma and Lake counties had burned more than 65,000 acres and was 30 percent contained as of Monday morning, according to Cal Fire.

Those numbers ticked up slightly from Sunday evening on the fire that started Sept. 27 and has destroyed 252 homes in Napa County and 235 in Sonoma County, along with destroying or damaging hundreds of other buildings.

Hot and dry conditions have contributed to the spread of the Glass Fire, which has no estimated date yet for full containment.

More than 36,000 people have been evacuated at various points because of the fire. A local assistance center is opening Monday at the Napa County Health and Human Services campus at 2751 Napa Valley Corporate Drive, Building A, in Napa.
