The Glass Fire had burned more than 36,000 acres – about 56 square miles – in California’s Sonoma and Napa counties and was zero percent contained as of Monday, September 28, according to fire officials.

The fire had destroyed 113 structures by Monday, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said. However, the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office said the theme for Tuesday was “cautious optimism” after cool weather and lighter wind helped firefighters battle the blaze.
