LATEST: Wildfires have killed 12 in California, 2 in Oregon and a child in Washington state; 500,000 have been ordered to evacuate in Oregon.

Seven more deaths have been confirmed where a wildfire is raging in Northern California, a sheriff's official said Thursday, bringing this month's death toll from fires burning across the state to at least 12.

"We again offer our heartfelt condolences to the loved ones of the victims who have lost their lives in this devastating fire," Butte County sheriff’s Capt. Derek Bell said. The North Complex has burned more than 244,000 acres, and part of that known as the"West Zone" is threatening Butte County, officials said.

There are 29 major fires or groups of fires called complexes burning across California and more than 3.1 million acres have burned since the start of the year, the state's wildfire firefighting agency said., and an estimated 500,000 residents are in mandatory evacuation zones, the state joint information center said. At least two deaths have been blamed on the fires in the state.

RosalieVermeire The CAFires are disasterous. Officials are urging folk to evacuate and take action BEFORE the fires reach them. Sorta like what POTUS should have done in January. It’s bad but it didn’t have to be this bad. I💙CALIFORNIA
