The Mountain Fire has swallowed homes in Southern California, while multiple fires are popping up on the East Coast.

Helped by cold wet weather, firefighters made progress containing the Shoe Fire in Shasta Trinity National Forest during the first weekend of November.

New wildfires burned Tuesday across the Northeast, adding to a series of blazes that have come amid very dry weather and killed at least one person, while much larger fires raged in California and other western states.
