California wildfire ‘looking a whole heck of a lot better’

Extensive damage from a slow-moving black river of sludge rolling inside the kitchen of the Oak Glen Steakhouse and Saloon in Oak Glen, Calif., is seen on Wednesday, Sept. 14, 2022. The muddy damage in Oak Glen and Forest Falls served as a powerful warning to areas burning or facing high fire danger of the damage wildfires can cause months or years after flames are doused.
