LATEST Jan. 20, 10:45 a.m. Cal Fire said it hopes to have seven small wildfires burning in northern Santa Cruz and southern San Mateo counties contained by the end of the day Wednesday amid favorable weather conditions. That s contained, not controlled, Cal Fire spokesperson Cecile Juliette said. We hope to have all of them controlled by this weekend. Contained is when they re able to get a fire line around the entire fire, so they can keep it within a certain area. Controlled is when they have the line around the fire and all the hot spots within the perimeter are out.
