The Ponderosa Fire in Butte County has already burned over 3,000 acres and destroyed 10 homes while forcing people to evacuate. The blaze continues as firefighters are gearing up for heavier burns this September.

Next Friday, Netflix releases the documentary series "Fire Chasers" which follows the men and women on the frontlines of California’s wildfire battles.

CAL FIRE Battalion Chief Michael Mohler is featured in the series, and joins Insight to explain the doc and provide an update on the Ponderosa fire.
