Gov. Jerry Brown issued a state of emergency for Kern County, a move that helps more quickly get aid to impacted communities. About 2,000 people have been evacuated as firefighters try to defend some 1,500 homes. About 800 firefighters are on the scene now, and officials hope to eventually have a thousand, they said.
