Firefighters made progress on two blazes threatening homes in California's wine country and in rural parts of central Oregon.

Rainn Wilson, aka. Dwight on The Office, is speaking out after he and his family were evacuated from their Oregon home due to the Flat Fire, which has destroyed at least four homes and is threatening thousands more in central Oregon.

Moisture helped the 1,200 firefighters battling Oregon’s Flat Fire, but it was only 5% contained Monday night.

As the Flat Fire burns through Central Oregon, an actor known for his role on "The Office" is voicing concerns over climate change amplifying wildfire activity as he and his family are among thousands under an evacuation order from the blaze.

Wilson, who played the beet-growing paper salesman Dwight Schrute in the popular sitcom “The Office,” said he and his wife, short-story writer Holiday Reinhorn, lost part of their California home in a 2024 wildfire.

Research shows delayed effects of Oregon’s Labor Day fires have killed trees that survived the initial blazes.

It’s been a mostly quiet season for wildfires in Oregon this summer, but that could change in a big way over the next week.
