Fire officials say 200 homes and other buildings have now been destroyed in a deadly wildfire burning in central California.

The Kern County Fire Department reports that firefighters were making progress Sunday in establishing a perimeter around the 58-square-mile blaze. Fire officials say most of the flames are now within that perimeter.

An elderly couple was found dead after becoming overcome by smoke and authorities say the death toll may rise.

Firefighters are hoping to take advantage of lighter winds, but a dry air mass over the area will continue to bring high temperatures and low humidity.

The wildfire has reduced entire blocks to rubble and threatened at least 2,500 homes.

A wildfire burning near Sundance, Wyoming, has destroyed one home and more than a dozen outbuildings.

Fire officials say the fire grew to 20 square miles Saturday, but intensive work allowed firefighters to get it 50 percent contained.

The fire is located east of the Keyhole Reservoir in northeast Wyoming, near the border with South Dakota. It started with lightning on Friday, and spread quickly.

Authorities closed Interstate 90 between Moorcroft and Sundance for a brief time Saturday to allow firefighters to build a fire line. The highway reopened Saturday evening.
