The Oak Fire burning west of Yosemite National Park topped 14,000 acres by early Sunday morning, leaving thousands of people evacuated as firefighters battled California’s largest and most explosive wildfire of 2022.

The blaze tore through 14,281 acres across Mariposa County and it remained 0% contained as of shortly after 7 a.m. Sunday, according to Cal Fire. Nearly 2,000 structures remained threatened, leaving about a third of the county’s residents under evacuation as flames barreled through tinder-dry landscape weakened by years of severe drought.
