Containment of the deadly McKinney Fire — which has killed four people while razing scores of houses in the Klamath National Forest — continued to grow Tuesday, even as firefighters worked through another round of dry and gusty weather.

The McKinney Fire was 55% contained Tuesday morning, Cal Fire and the U.S. Forest Service announced. The progress came as firefighters celebrated having cut line around the entire 80-mile perimeter of the 60,389-acre fire — meaning they could focus on mopping up hot spots while working to keep its acreage unchanged, the Forest Service reported.
