A fast-moving wildfire near Coalinga in Fresno County, California, grew from 150 acres to around 8,200 acres in less than 24 hours and was 40 percent contained by the morning of Friday, May 19, officials reported.

This video, shared by fire officials on Thursday, shows smoke rising and hillsides blackened by the so-called Elm Fire.

An evacuation center was established at the nearby West Hills College, and several structures were threatened, CalFire said.
