MASON COUNTY, Wash. — Officials say the Bear Gulch fire will keep burning until winter, and it’s still growing. The priority now is keeping flames away from homes. Overnight, the fire grew by about 1,200 acres, mostly in remote terrain, and fire crews say they’ll need help from Mother Nature to put it out.

Winds could blow smoke from the Bear Gulch fire burning on the Olympic Peninsula, bringing the potential for unhealthy air and hazy skies.
