Description

On this week's Evening News Magazine we have updates on this year’s largest wildfire in California, the Park Fire, burning in Butte and Tehama Counties. 

What decisions will Federal Reserve policy makers make regarding interest rates and what does that mean for US consumers? KVMR’s Paul Emory and former Fed Economist Gary Zimmerman tackle these questions in this week’s Economic Report. 

KVMR News Director Cláudio Mendonça speaks with a University of Southern California researcher whose team has recently developed a wildfire behavioral model that uses artificial intelligence to better predict its likely path, intensity and growth rate. 

We close with an essay by Nevada City poet Molly Fisk.
