Good afternoon. This is Diane Martinet with the midday news on KALF. Fires in California continue to burn out of control, and several small towns in the forests near San Francisco are still in danger. One of the greatest dangers to the 500 firefighters, however, comes not from the fires, but from poison plants in the forest. Many firefighters have got skin problems after touching the plants, and at least three have had to go to the hospital for treatment for their skin problems.
