Renamed Bear Fire to the Western Zone of the North Complex 2,000 buildings destroyed or damaged according to Cal Fire - CBS Sacramento

BUTTE COUNTY (CBS13) – Update on Bear Fire, the sequel to the Northern Complex Fire that started the Plumas National Forest:

10:30 am

Cal Fire gave a new name to the wildfire that destroyed or damaged thousands of buildings.

Authorities have announced that Bear Fire will now be called the western zone of the northern complex, Cal Fire said Thursday morning.

It is unclear why the name was changed, but the new designation reflects how the wildfire is part of a larger Northern Complex fire that burned for almost a month before exploding this week.

Cal Fire also listed a total of 2,000 structures destroyed or damaged as of Thursday morning. It is unclear how many of these structures were houses at the time. Another 22,356 structures remain under threat.

As of Thursday, the North Zone / Bear Fire complex has grown to 70,250 acres. The containment is still 0 percent.

7:57 am

Butte County authorities on Thursday were looking for at least 12 people missing in the Bear Fire after three people were found dead Wednesday.

One mother, Jessica Williams, reported the loss of her 16-year-old son, Josia. He was last seen at Berry Creek, and as of Thursday morning, she says she still hasn’t been able to reach him.

About 20,000 people are under evacuation orders in the area due to the bear fire, which is part of the Northern Complex fires in Butte, Plumas and Yuba counties.

After a serious gust of hurricane in the last few days, the fire broke out after three weeks of burning. Hundreds of houses and other structures were damaged or destroyed. As of Thursday morning, the Northern Complex fires have burned 252,163 acres, or nearly 400 square miles, with a 24 percent containment – up from 51 percent before these new outbreaks.

Parts of the Paradise and Konkou communities that were devastated by a camp fire in 2018 are again threatened by Bearfire.

The US Forest Service said Thursday it was predicted that winds would move southwest, which could lead to increased fire and smoke.

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.

Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.

According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”

In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.

The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.

In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.

From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.

Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.

“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.

“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
