Firefighters in Reno, Nevada, are working to contain a fast-moving wildfire that expanded significantly over the weekend in the Sierra Nevada foothills. The blaze has moved perilously close to local residential neighborhoods, prompting authorities to issue evacuation advisories affecting more than 90,000 residents.
