Fire crews were making progress, but flames continued to "creep and smolder" in Ventura, California. And winds could kick up again.

Crews increased containment Monday of the Mountain Fire to 36% in Ventura County northwest of Los Angeles, up from 26% on Sunday morning.

A Southern California wildfire has destroyed 132 structures, mostly homes, in less than two days, fire officials said Thursday as raging winds were forecast to ease.
