Oregon's Rowena Fire threatening thousands; plus will your Father's Day activities get rained out?

There’s a wildfire burning out of control in Oregon, close to the border with Washington and it has forced the closure of several major roads and hundreds of evacuations. Firefighting crews are having a tough time keeping up with it with gusty winds in the area threatening to continue its rapid spread.  Over 3800 acres have burned in the Rowena Fire since it started on Wednesday afternoon in Wasco County.. It’s 5% contained as of early Saturday morning.

Plus, thunderstorms could interrupt some outdoor Father’s Day plans this weekend, but not everyone will need to have a raincoat or umbrella at the ready before heading to the golf course or the ballpark.
