A ferocious wildfire approached Lake Tahoe just hours after roads were clogged with fleeing cars when the entire California resort city of South Lake Tahoe was ordered to evacuate and communities just across the state line in Nevada were warned to get ready to leave. 'We're in areas that haven't burned on some records for decades or even 100 years. Fuel load is extreme out in these areas', said Keith Wade from Caldor Fire Incident Command. Strong winds have pushed the Caldor fire across California towards Nevada. In California alone, more than 15,200 firefighters are fighting more than a dozen large fires.
