Firefighters continue to battle the flames as two deadly wildfires in Southern California rage on.
Major parks and highways continue to be closed as fire crews work on containing the Soberanes and Sand fires. Thousands of homes have been evacuated.
The fires began on Friday due to scorching temperatures, high winds and the on-going drought in part fueled by global climate change.
