Caughlin Fire (Reno, NV): update 2

According to this report from the Morning Call, the Caughlin Fire in Reno NV was contained yesterday at 1,935 acres. In addition, you will want to see Bill Gabbert's latest report on the fire here. Bill, of Wildfire Today has reported on this fire on Nob 18 and Nov 20. Of interest to me was Bill's reporting that snow aided in the containment of the fire.

The cause of the fire may be due to downed electric wire, see this Washington Post report for more information.
